How bath repair works in FK4

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a chip where the taps sit.

There’s 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, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  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.

Cost

Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Local landmarks in Bonnybridge

Typical jobs here are in homes near Denny High School and Bonnybridge Parish Church and the streets around them. The closest station to Bonnybridge is Larbert station, about 2.7 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Forth Valley Royal Hospital (2.3 miles north-east) and Herbertshire Castle (2.1 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Callendar Lake and Myot Hill.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for FK4. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Questions from FK4

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
