Bath repair at your home in OL14

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and a chip where the taps sit, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  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. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Near you in Todmorden

Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Christ Church, Todmorden CofE J and Weavers Arms Public House and the streets around them. There is a railway station in Todmorden itself: Todmorden station. A little further out are Todmorden Toy & Model Museum (less than half a mile south) and Dobroyd Castle (0.6 miles south-west). The countryside around Todmorden includes Stoodley Pike.

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in OL14

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in OL14 and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for OL14

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

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

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
