Bath repair for The Mint homes

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Bath repair in The Mint without replacing anything

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We’re frequently asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and impact holes in acrylic, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in The Mint

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Mint as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including The Mint. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in The Mint

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

Signs you need bath repair in The Mint

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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, generally the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price
