Bath repair near Stokesby

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

How we handle bath repair in Stokesby

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. Common call-outs are for hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Stokesby

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stokesby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most customers in Stokesby get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stokesby

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

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

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures 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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Look out for any of the following:
