Bath repair in Whitcott Keysett

Bath repair at your home in Whitcott Keysett

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and cracks in an acrylic bath.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlord and trade work in Whitcott Keysett

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Your questions about bath repair in Whitcott Keysett

Are there extra charges for Whitcott Keysett?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Whitcott Keysett?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Whitcott Keysett. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Whitcott Keysett. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, 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.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

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