Our bath repair service in ME2

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, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side.

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
We clean, key and degrease the damage.
We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
We match both the colour and the shine.
We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Pricing in ME2

Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in ME2

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for ME2. What changes the price is:

How hard the colour is to match
How much damage there is
The material and finish
Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The material, if you know it
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Repair or replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Have new chips seen to early
Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about bath repair in ME2

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
