Bath repair in Thomshill without replacing anything

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rusty patches near the plughole.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Thomshill questions

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Thomshill. Prices do not change with location.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Thomshill?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long before I can use the bath?

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

Do you need bath repair in Thomshill?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chip where the taps sit

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Thomshill

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
