How bath repair works in PE29

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Repair or replace?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended

How the damage happens

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips under the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips on the rim or sides

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Landlord and trade work in PE29

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in PE29 use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

FAQs for PE29

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
