Bath repair in The Bage without replacing anything

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust spots around the plughole, we can help, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why The Bage customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in The Bage, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we are called out for in The Bage

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

The Bage questions

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How do I get a price for bath repair in The Bage?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Composite and resin

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