Landlord and trade work in Whittington Moor

For anyone letting property in or around Whittington Moor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Whittington Moor

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about bath repair in Whittington Moor

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derbyshire.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Whittington Moor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
