How bath repair works in S64

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and a cracked acrylic bath.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

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.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Repair or replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How the damage happens

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

S64 questions

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 picture.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to S64 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
