How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What we’re called out for in Bewdley

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Your questions about bath repair in Bewdley

Do you work in Bewdley?

We do. We send a technician to Bewdley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Will the repair last?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Bewdley and want a price, 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
