About our bath repair in Sutton

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage from a refit and cracks in an acrylic bath.

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

Before and after: a damaged acrylic bath corner repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

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.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

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

Landlord and trade work in Sutton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Sutton

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Sutton. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
