Surface repairs across LA19

Bath repair at your home in LA19

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the day after. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What it costs in LA19

Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in LA19 as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

LA19 questions

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
