Bath repair near Stroud Green

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Store metal items away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Bath repair in Stroud Green, done in place

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a chip where the taps sit, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stroud Green. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stroud Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stroud Green, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stroud Green as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

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

Stroud Green: your questions answered

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
