How we handle bath repair in Tattershall

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and chips caused by builders.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlord and trade work in Tattershall

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Tattershall

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Store metal items away from the bath

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Our hiring checklist

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Tattershall: your questions answered

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
