Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

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. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Do you need bath repair in Alsagers Bank?

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

FAQs for Alsagers Bank

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
