Trusted bath repair in Yoxall

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Yoxall, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

About our bath repair in Yoxall

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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

What bath repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Yoxall. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repairing versus replacing in Yoxall

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Yoxall customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

When to call us in Yoxall

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips under the taps
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Can pets and children be at home?

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
