Bath repair at your home in Viney Hill

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need bath repair in Viney Hill?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Repairing versus replacing in Viney Hill

Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  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, normally the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Your questions about bath repair in Viney Hill

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
