Bath repair across DN22: what to expect

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and chips on the rim or sides, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through

What we are called out for in DN22

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A chipped rim or side

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. 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’s what we repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in DN22

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from DN22

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

How much does bath repair cost in DN22?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DN22 postcode.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
