Bath repair near Yatton Keynell

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

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

About our bath repair in Yatton Keynell

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and a kit repair that didn’t last, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Yatton Keynell

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yatton Keynell use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Yatton Keynell, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
