Our bath repair service in SP11

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about rusty patches near the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Cost

Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in SP11

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Common reasons people in SP11 contact us include:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Chips under the taps

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for SP11. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about bath repair in SP11

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
