Our bath repair service in PE10

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rusty patches near the plughole, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Signs you need bath repair

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

PE10 questions

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes PE10. Prices don’t change with location.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Do you come to PE10?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to PE10 and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
