How we handle bath repair in Woodhall

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are deep scratches in acrylic and chips caused by builders.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

Why repair rather than replace?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Signs you need bath repair in Woodhall

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Woodhall: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

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 what we repair.
