About our bath repair in Wigtoft

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and rusty patches near the plughole, across pressed steel enamel, 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 will come back.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Wigtoft: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repair or replace in Wigtoft?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

What we’re called out for in Wigtoft

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
