About our bath repair in Timberland

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We’re often asked to fix chips on the rim or sides and rust by the waste and overflow, in whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Timberland

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

If you manage property in Timberland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Timberland. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Common questions in Timberland

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

What about rust by the waste?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What we are called out for in Timberland

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
