Bath repair in Burntwood, done in place

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and a hole punched through by something heavy, in roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Burntwood

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Signs you need bath repair in Burntwood

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Damage beneath the taps

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath repair in Burntwood

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Burntwood?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burntwood. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

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

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
