Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairs by material

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.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

What we are called out for in Bassetts Pole

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips under the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bassetts Pole. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath

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 give you a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel

Your questions about bath repair in Bassetts Pole

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Birmingham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you redo an old repair?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
