Bath and surface repairs in HU10

How bath repair works in HU10

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

• The size and number of damaged areas
• How hard the colour is to match
• The material and finish
• Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

• Details of any past repairs
• Natural light rather than flash
• A close-up of the damage, in focus
• The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

• Rinse it down after each bath
• Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
• Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
• Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
