Bath repair near Theobald's Green

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Theobald's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Theobald's Green

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Theobald's Green use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Theobald's Green

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

When to call us in Theobald's Green

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Your questions about bath repair in Theobald's Green

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How invisible is a bath repair?

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 match an avocado or pink bath?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Repair or replace in Theobald's Green?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
