How we handle bath repair in Bradnop
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, generally in a single visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks in an acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common problems we fix in Bradnop
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price covers travel
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
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.
Common questions in Bradnop
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Bradnop included. Travel is included in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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 is what we repair.
What affects the price in Bradnop
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

How it works
From the moment we arrive, 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.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
