About bath repair in GL9

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Near you in Hawkesbury Upton

We visit homes around Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, The Fox Inn and Hawkesbury Church of England Primary School, among other places. For a walk, there’s Nind Nature Reserve.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

What kind of damage it is
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The colour and finish to match
How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

Your postcode, so we can check dates
A photo taken from further back
Any earlier repairs or coatings
The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in GL9

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How the damage happens

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

Rust spots around the plughole
A kit repair that didn’t last
Chips on the rim or sides
Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Your questions about bath repair in GL9

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
