Bath repair in St Mary Bourne

About our bath repair in St Mary Bourne

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots around the plughole and a hole punched through by something heavy.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in St Mary Bourne

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel

Do you need bath repair in St Mary Bourne?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Common reasons people in St Mary Bourne contact us are:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A chipped rim or side

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Mary Bourne

For anyone letting property in or around St Mary Bourne, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

FAQs for St Mary Bourne

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Do you come to St Mary Bourne?

We do. Repair technicians travel to St Mary Bourne from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
