Bath repair for Wrentham homes

Bath repair in Wrentham, done in place

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. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and cracks in an acrylic bath, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wrentham and across Suffolk.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wrentham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath repair in Wrentham

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

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

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Wrentham: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you come to Wrentham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wrentham and the rest of Suffolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

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

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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