Bath repair near Woodside Green

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

About our bath repair in Woodside Green

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. 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. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about impact holes in acrylic and chips caused by builders.

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

Work for landlords and builders

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Woodside Green

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we’re called out for in Woodside Green

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodside Green

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Woodside Green questions

Can you quote from photos?

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

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ME17 postcode.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
