How bath repair works in SY99

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We’re frequently asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and holes from dropped items, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath

Most customers in SY99 get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we’re called out for in SY99

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
