Bath repair near Wilton

Do you need bath repair in Wilton?

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side

Bath repair at your home in Wilton

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and cracks in an acrylic bath.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Wilton

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Do you work in Wilton?

We do. We send a technician to Wilton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

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

Materials we repair

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

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

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
