Bath repair at your home in KW6

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Landlord and trade work in KW6

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around KW6, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to KW6. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Questions from KW6

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
