Bath repair in Suton

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

About our bath repair in Suton

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can generally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Suton

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Suton. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Your questions about bath repair in Suton

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Common problems we fix in Suton

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips under the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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