Trusted bath repair in Stowting

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Bath repair at your home in Stowting

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s a chip where the taps sit and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stowting

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Stowting

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Stowting. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Stowting, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Questions from Stowting

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

When can I have a bath again?

Normally the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Stowting?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Should you replace it?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
