How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IV53 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How we handle bath repair in Strome Ferry

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strome Ferry

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Strome Ferry: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Strome Ferry

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
