For landlords and businesses
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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Have new chips seen to early
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For a price in West Chelborough, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
FAQs for West Chelborough
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover West Chelborough?
We do. We send a technician to West Chelborough for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes West Chelborough. Prices don’t change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
When to call us in West Chelborough
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
