Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Sutton Lane Ends questions

Are there extra charges for Sutton Lane Ends?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Sutton Lane Ends and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Sutton Lane Ends

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

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Do you need bath repair in Sutton Lane Ends?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Sutton Lane Ends

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Sutton Lane Ends. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The material, if you know it

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
