Bath repair across BT24: what to expect
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
What you’ll pay
Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in BT24, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Around Ballynahinch
Typical jobs here are in homes near The High School Ballynahinch and the streets around them. The countryside around Ballynahinch includes Bohill Forest.
What affects the price in BT24
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, 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.
Signs you need bath repair
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.
