Trusted bath repair in Amblecote

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Bath repair in Amblecote without replacing anything

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We are frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks in an acrylic bath, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Repair or replace in Amblecote?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Amblecote. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Amblecote questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
