How bath repair works in Walsall

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

What you’ll pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Common problems we fix in Walsall

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Walsall questions

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How long before I can use the bath?

Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
