Bath repair at your home in PA60

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. 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’re frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and rusty patches near the plughole, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

What we’re called out for in PA60

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chipped rim or side

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in PA60, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
