Our bath repair service in HP9

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We are frequently asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Local landmarks in Beaconsfield

In Beaconsfield, that means homes near The Chiltern pub, Beaconsfield High School and Butlers Court School and the streets around them. You will also find Church of St Michael and All Angels (within half a mile north-east) and Davenies School (less than half a mile east). Beaconsfield has its own railway station: Beaconsfield station. Other landmarks nearby include High Wycombe Castle (4.6 miles west) and Chalfonts and Gerrards Cross Hospital (3.7 miles east). For a walk, there’s Holtspur Bank.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Common problems we fix in HP9

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

Your questions about bath repair in HP9

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What about rust by the waste?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Buckinghamshire.
