Repair or replace in Alvechurch?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Common questions in Alvechurch
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Alvechurch. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Alvechurch
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Alvechurch, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What else we do in Alvechurch
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Alvechurch get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your B48 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
