About our bath repair in Stoke Bruerne

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and chips along the edge of the bath, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stoke Bruerne

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stoke Bruerne as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Stoke Bruerne

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips under the taps
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
