Surface repairs across RM15

Bath repair at your home in RM15

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We are often asked to fix chips under the taps and chips caused by builders, across whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Cost

Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repair or replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to RM15. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in RM15, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around RM15, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for RM15

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in RM15.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
