Bath repair for Stretton under Fosse homes

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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

Materials we work on in Stretton under Fosse

Bath repair in Stretton under Fosse without replacing anything

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Repair or replace in Stretton under Fosse?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Composite and resin

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

When to call us in Stretton under Fosse

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Holes from dropped items

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
