Expert Bath Repair Chelmsford

Bath repair Chelmsford professional accreditations Chelmsford bathtub restoration certifications

With the Bond Street redevelopment transforming Chelmsford's city centre and thousands of new homes at Beaulieu Park, bath repair Chelmsford services are busier than ever. Our 30 years of experience means we've worked on everything from Victorian terraces in Moulsham to brand-new apartments at Channels, understanding exactly what Essex's only city needs when it comes to professional bathtub restoration.

The rapid expansion across Chelmsford brings unique challenges. New build estates like Beaulieu Park and Chancellor Park often come with standard white acrylic baths that show damage easily, while older properties around Central Park and Melbourne still have original cast iron baths worth preserving. Whether you're dealing with construction damage in a new Redrow home or years of wear in a period property near the Cathedral, our 12 months warranty gives you complete peace of mind.

What Chelmsford Residents Say About Our Bath Repair Service

"Living in a new build at Beaulieu Park, I was devastated when the builders dropped tools in our bath. Surface Doctor fixed it perfectly - you'd never know there was damage. Their 30 years of experience really shows. Much better than waiting months for a builder warranty claim!"
Sarah Thompson - Beaulieu Park, CM1
"Our Victorian house near Central Park has an original roll-top bath we wanted to keep. The team restored it beautifully, saving us thousands. They even matched the unusual cream colour perfectly. The 12 months warranty gave us confidence to go ahead."
David Mitchell - Moulsham Street, CM2
"Managing student properties near Anglia Ruskin University means constant bath repairs. Surface Doctor are our go-to team - they're quick, professional, and their repairs last. Having that warranty means we don't worry about callbacks."
Premier Lets - Writtle Road, CM1

Recent Bath Repair Projects in Chelmsford

New Build Disaster - Beaulieu Park

A family moving into their £450,000 Beaulieu Park home discovered deep scratches in their designer bath, likely from construction work. The developers offered replacement but warned it would take 8-12 weeks and require bathroom dismantling. We repaired the damage in just 3 hours for £285, matching the pristine white finish perfectly. The repair came with our 12 months warranty, and two years later, it still looks perfect. The alternative would have cost £3,000 plus weeks of disruption.

Student House Transformation - Writtle Road

A landlord near Anglia Ruskin University faced replacing three damaged baths in their student property. Years of heavy use had left chips, stains, and worn patches. We resurfaced all three baths in two days for £1,200 total - compared to £4,500 for replacements plus fitting. The reinforced coating we applied is perfect for rental properties, and our warranty covers normal tenant use. The property now achieves higher rental yields with the improved bathrooms.

Heritage Bath Saved - Cathedral Quarter

The owners of a Grade II listed property near Chelmsford Cathedral needed their original 1890s cast iron bath restored. Multiple chips and 130 years of use had taken their toll. Using techniques refined over our 30 years experience, we completed a full restoration for £475. The conservation officer approved our work, and the bath is now a stunning feature. Professional removal and re-enamelling would have cost over £5,000 and risked damaging this irreplaceable fixture.

How We Repair Baths in Chelmsford Properties

Bath chip repair process Chelmsford

Our Professional Repair Process

Drawing on three decades of experience, we've perfected bath repair techniques for every type of damage. Whether it's a small chip in a Beaulieu Park new build or complete resurfacing of a Moulsham Victorian bath, our process ensures lasting results.

Assessment & Preparation

Every repair starts with thorough assessment. We identify the bath material (acrylic, cast iron, steel, or fibreglass), evaluate damage depth, and check for underlying issues. Preparation is crucial - we clean, degrease, and key the surface for optimal adhesion.

Repair & Restoration

For chips and cracks, we use professional-grade fillers that bond at a molecular level. Multiple thin layers prevent shrinkage and ensure invisible repairs. Larger areas receive specialized primers before our durable topcoat application. We carry extensive colour matching equipment, including shades for older Chelmsford properties with coloured suites.

Finishing & Warranty

Final polishing brings back the original shine, whether high-gloss modern or satin vintage finish. Every repair includes our 12 months warranty certificate, giving you complete protection. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to maximize repair longevity - most last 10-15 years with proper care.

Why Chelmsford Chooses Surface Doctor

Bath Repair Chelmsford - Your Questions Answered

How long do bath repairs take?

Most Chelmsford bath repairs complete within 2-4 hours. Small chips take about an hour, while full resurfacing needs 3-4 hours. We work around your schedule - popular times include while you're at work or during the school run. The bath needs 24 hours to fully cure before use, but your bathroom remains accessible.

Do you repair new build bath damage?

Yes, we specialize in new build repairs across Beaulieu Park, Channels, and other Chelmsford developments. Builder damage is incredibly common - from dropped tools to grouting splashes. We work with several developers and can often repair damage faster than warranty claims, with our own 12 months warranty for peace of mind.

Can you repair coloured baths?

Absolutely. Many Chelmsford properties, especially 1970s-80s homes in Springfield and Great Baddow, have coloured suites. We match any colour including avocado, champagne, whisper peach, and burgundy. We can also change colours during resurfacing if you want to modernize.

What about rental property repairs?

With Anglia Ruskin University and the city's commuter population, Chelmsford has thousands of rental properties. Our repairs are perfect for quick turnarounds between tenants. The 12-month warranty covers normal use, and our reinforced coatings handle heavy rental wear. Many letting agents near the High Street recommend our services.

Do repairs work on old cast iron baths?

Yes! Chelmsford's Victorian properties around Moulsham and the Cathedral Quarter often have original cast iron baths. Our 30 years experience includes specialist cast iron restoration. We repair chips, resurface worn enamel, and can even restore severely damaged baths that others might condemn. These period features are worth preserving.

How much can I save versus replacement?

Typically 70-80% savings. A standard bath replacement in Chelmsford costs £2,000-£4,000 including the bath, fitting, tiling, and disposal. Our repairs range from £95-£595 depending on damage. Plus, you avoid the mess, disruption, and 2-3 days without a bathroom. For period properties, original features are often irreplaceable.
