When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath repair at your home in Barnettbrook

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the rim or sides and snagging damage from a refit, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Barnettbrook

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Do you work in Barnettbrook?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Barnettbrook. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DY10 postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Worcestershire.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What affects the price in Barnettbrook

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

What we’re called out for in Barnettbrook

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips under the taps

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Barnettbrook?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK

Read our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
