Our bath repair service in RH4

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and snagging damage from a refit.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

We protect the bath and the floor around it.
The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
We match both the colour and the shine.
We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.

What it costs in RH4

Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for RH4. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including RH4. What changes the price is:

How hard the colour is to match
The type of damage
Where the damage is and how we get to it
Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A wider photo showing the entire bath
Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we are called out for in RH4

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Clients generally contact us about:

An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Damage beneath the taps
Rust spots around the plughole
A cracked acrylic bath

Landlord and trade work in RH4

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

RH4 questions

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
