Bath repair in The Hook

Common questions in The Hook

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Repairing versus replacing in The Hook

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. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Hook use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to The Hook. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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