Signs you need bath repair in Tyler's Hill

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

Questions to ask before booking

How we handle bath repair in Tyler's Hill

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. We’re often asked to fix damage beneath the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

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

Tyler's Hill: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Tyler's Hill?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your HP5 postcode.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Repair or replace in Tyler's Hill?

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. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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 a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
