Do you need bath repair in Stones Green?

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Holes from dropped items
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Stones Green

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Your questions about bath repair in Stones Green

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Stones Green and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will it make a mess?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
