Surface repairs across KW9

Bath repair at your home in KW9

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We are frequently asked to fix chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Around Brora

Around Brora, we work in homes near Brora. Brora has its own railway station: Brora station. Well-known places in the area include Lawson Memorial Hospital (5.6 miles south-west) and Dunrobin Castle (3.9 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Loch an Tubairnaich.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Repairing versus replacing

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place.

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage

What we are called out for in KW9

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What affects the price in KW9

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Questions from KW9

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes KW9. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are there extra charges for KW9?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
