Your questions about bath repair in Williamstown

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Williamstown is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Bath repair in Williamstown without replacing anything

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and damage beneath the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

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

Common problems we fix in Williamstown

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips caused by builders

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

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

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Williamstown. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
