Bath Repair in Solihull

Bath repair across Solihull: what to expect

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We are often asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and a cracked acrylic bath, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repair or replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

What affects the price in Solihull

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Solihull, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for Solihull

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
