Signs you need bath repair in Stoneywood

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Advice

Questions from Stoneywood

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.
