Bath repair across LL40: what to expect

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

What affects the price in LL40

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for LL40. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

What we’re called out for in LL40

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Holes from dropped items

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

LL40 questions

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
