For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Bath repair at your home in Wootton

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and cracks in an acrylic bath, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

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

Bath enamel chip by the waste, filled and colour matched (before and after)

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Cast iron

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Store metal items away from the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

When to call us in Wootton

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

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

Common questions in Wootton

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How do I book?

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

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Usually the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Do you cover Wootton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Wootton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

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

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.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
