Need bath repair in Wentworth?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bath repair in Wentworth, done in place

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Common call-outs are for scuffs and scratches in the surface and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Signs you need bath repair in Wentworth

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Wentworth

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  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 next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
