Bath repair across LA23: what to expect

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and rusty patches near the plughole, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

What you’ll pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for LA23. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landmarks near Windermere

Our clients here include homes close to The Lakes School, St Martin & St Mary Church of England Primary School and Windermere Hotel, among other places. There is a railway station in Windermere itself: Windermere station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Windermere Steamboat Museum (0.6 miles south-west) and Wray Castle (2.9 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Galls Tarn and School Knott.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

Rinse it down after each bath
Have new chips seen to early
If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to LA23. The price comes down to:

How many areas need work
How many items we do on one visit
The colour and finish to match
How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
One sharp close-up of the damage
The material, if you know it
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in LA23

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

Impact holes in acrylic
A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Chips along the edge of the bath

Landlords, agents and businesses in LA23

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.
