What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlord and trade work in Thrintoft

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Thrintoft

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need bath repair in Thrintoft?

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Chips caused by builders

Questions from Thrintoft

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

When can you do it?

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

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
