Bath repair at your home in Tingewick

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. If you’re dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can typically put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tingewick and across Buckinghamshire.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Tingewick, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Store metal items away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should you replace it?

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. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tingewick. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Your questions about bath repair in Tingewick

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Tingewick

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Common reasons people in Tingewick contact us are:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched
