What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Do you need bath repair in Stanton under Bardon?

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Stanton under Bardon questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

How much does bath repair cost in Stanton under Bardon?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LE67 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
