Bath Repair in Laurieston

Repair or replace in Laurieston?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we handle bath repair in Laurieston

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks and holes in acrylic baths and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Signs you need bath repair in Laurieston

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

What happens on the day

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 usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Questions from Laurieston

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and clean up when we finish.

Do you come to Laurieston?

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

What guarantee do I get?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.
