What else we do in Watton
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Repairing versus replacing in Watton
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Common questions in Watton
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Watton?
We do. We send a technician to Watton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the entire of East Riding of Yorkshire?
The entire UK, including all of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
