Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Stanley Green

If you manage property in Stanley Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Stanley Green. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Stanley Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about bath repair in Stanley Green

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Stanley Green included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you cover Stanley Green?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stanley Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Stanley Green

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips under the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
