Our bath repair service in CO14

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused by builders and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Around Walton-on-the-Naze

We visit homes around Walton on the Naze Primary School, Tendring Technology College and The Victory pub, among other places. Other local landmarks include Frinton Park (0.8 miles south-west) and Church of All Saints (less than half a mile east). There’s a railway station in Walton-on-the-Naze itself: Walton-On-The-Naze station. The countryside around Walton-on-the-Naze includes The Naze Nature Reserve.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Store metal items away from the bath
Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Landlords, agents and businesses in CO14

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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Metal that has corroded all the way through
Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

What we’re called out for in CO14

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
A chipped rim or side
A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Common questions in CO14

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How much does bath repair cost in CO14?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
