What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we handle bath repair in Blakenhall

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and a cracked acrylic bath.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

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 feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repairing versus replacing in Blakenhall

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Blakenhall customers choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When to call us in Blakenhall

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blakenhall

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blakenhall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Blakenhall, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What affects the price in Blakenhall

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Blakenhall: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you come to Blakenhall?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Blakenhall and the rest of Wolverhampton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

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