About bath repair in SY24

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. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to SY24. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Most customers in SY24 get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

SY24 questions

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you come to SY24?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to SY24. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
