Bath repair at your home in Womenswold

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips under the taps.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

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

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Common questions in Womenswold

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Womenswold

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Do you need bath repair in Womenswold?

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips caused by builders

Comparing quotes

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  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. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
