Questions from Litherland

How much does bath repair cost in Litherland?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your L21 postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you protect the room?

We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and clean up when we finish.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do you come to Litherland?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Litherland and the rest of Sefton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can I use it again?

Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Bath repair at your home in Litherland

You can usually use the bath the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rust spots where the enamel has gone and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

How it works

On the day, 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 tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

When to call us in Litherland

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Scratches and burns
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
