Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Bath repair in Blackwood, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with damage beneath the taps and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Blackwood
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Blackwood, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Blackwood
Baths take more knocks than people expect: 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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- How the room is protected while they work
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
