Our bath repair service in SY5
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What you’ll pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Local landmarks in Pontesbury
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Pontesbury CofE Primary School, Mary Webb School and Science College and Church of St George and the streets around them. Nearby you’ll also find Callow Castle (1.1 miles south-west) and Beeches Hospital (5.3 miles east).
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Repairing versus replacing
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it.
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
Landlords, agents and businesses in SY5
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for SY5. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
If you’re in SY5 and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
SY5: your questions answered
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you cover SY5?
We do. Repair technicians travel to SY5 from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
