DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in White Stone as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

White Stone: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover the whole of Herefordshire?
We cover the whole UK, including White Stone and the rest of Herefordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in White Stone?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
