Repairing versus replacing in Troy Town

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site

How we handle bath repair in Troy Town

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. We work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and chips on the rim or sides.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Troy Town and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we are called out for in Troy Town

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chipped rim or side

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Common questions in Troy Town

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you come to Troy Town?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Troy Town. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Do you repair coloured baths?

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

Will it make a mess?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Troy Town?

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

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

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.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Troy Town. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
