What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic

What affects the price in Trull

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Trull. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trull

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Repairing versus replacing in Trull

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs

When to call us in Trull

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Common reasons people in Trull contact us include:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Holes from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Common questions in Trull

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What does bath repair cost?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
