Our bath repair service in BT42

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

What it costs in BT42

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Should you replace it?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How much does bath repair cost in BT42?

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
