Our bath repair service in TA5

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and rust spots around the plughole.

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 morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Signs you need bath repair

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage from a refit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What affects the price in TA5

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to TA5. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

TA5: your questions answered

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
