What we’re called out for in Stone Street

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Stone Street contact us are:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips caused by builders

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Stone Street

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

FAQs for Stone Street

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

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

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Stone Street, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
