Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sutton Mandeville. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

FAQs for Sutton Mandeville

How invisible is a bath repair?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Wiltshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we work on in Sutton Mandeville

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SP3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

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

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
