Bath repair for Walter's Ash homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walter's Ash

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Bath repair in Walter's Ash without replacing anything

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 and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the following day. We are often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

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

Walter's Ash questions

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
