Our bath repair service in G41

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

What it costs in G41

Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Landlords, agents and businesses in G41

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How the damage happens

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chip where the taps sit

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

FAQs for G41

Do you come to G41?

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

How much does bath repair cost in G41?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
