When to call us in Sutton Marsh

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Bath repair at your home in Sutton Marsh

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and holes from dropped items.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  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, normally the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Sutton Marsh questions

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Sutton Marsh included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you work in Sutton Marsh?

We do. We send a technician to Sutton Marsh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

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

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

Landlord and trade work in Sutton Marsh

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sutton Marsh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are

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

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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

What we work on

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