Our bath repair service in TD4

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We are often asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and rusty patches near the plughole, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including TD4. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around TD4, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

TD4: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
