Bath repair at your home in G76

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and chips caused by builders.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including G76. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in G76 and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for G76

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
