Bath repair at your home in Weston by Welland

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and snagging damage from a refit.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging 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.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

What the surface is made of
How many items we do on one visit
What kind of damage it is
Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

Any details about the material
A close-up of the damage, in focus
Natural light rather than flash
One picture of the whole bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Have new chips seen to early
If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Rinse it down after each bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Questions from Weston by Welland

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

Let us know which floor the room is on
Point us to the nearest place to park
Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Weston by Welland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
