Our bath repair service in KT20

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and deep scratches in acrylic.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

What you will pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to KT20. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need bath repair

Common reasons people in KT20 contact us include:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Chips caused by builders
