About our bath repair in Sutton Gault

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a kit repair that didn’t last.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Sutton Gault

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. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price

Repair or replace in Sutton Gault?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Sutton Gault. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
