About our bath repair in Stoke Mandeville

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in Stoke Mandeville

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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 build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Stoke Mandeville: your questions answered

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Stoke Mandeville included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit
