Landlords, agents and businesses in Yorton

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Bath repair in Yorton without replacing anything

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common problems we fix in Yorton

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips under the taps

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Yorton

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Yorton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Common questions in Yorton

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SY4 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What information do you need?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

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

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
