Bath repair for Tilford Reeds homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bath repair at your home in Tilford Reeds

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and snagging damage from a refit, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Tilford Reeds

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

FAQs for Tilford Reeds

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What affects the price in Tilford Reeds

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tilford Reeds. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
