Bath repair in Stonor, done in place

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are rust by the waste and overflow and damage beneath the taps.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Acrylic bath corner rebuilt by Surface Doctor, before and after

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

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 happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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 day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

When to call us in Stonor

Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Holes from dropped items

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

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, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Stonor

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stonor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
