Bath repair across SA65: what to expect

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and snagging damage from a refit.

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in SA65

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Your questions about bath repair in SA65

How much does bath repair cost in SA65?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SA65 postcode.

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 pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
