How bath repair works in NG14

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and a chipped rim or side.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.

Around Calverton

Around Calverton, we work in homes near Manor Park Infant and Nursery School, St Wilfrid's Church and Colonel Frank Seely Academy and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Burton Joyce station, roughly 4.3 miles south-east of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Lowdham Motte (3.6 miles south-east) and Calverton Folk Museum (under half a mile south-east).

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in NG14

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around NG14, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Signs you need bath repair

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

NG14: your questions answered

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How much does bath repair cost in NG14?

How long before I can use the bath?

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
