Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Stratfield Mortimer customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What affects the price in Stratfield Mortimer

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stratfield Mortimer. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

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

If you are in Stratfield Mortimer and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. 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.
