Bath repair at your home in Compton
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust spots around the plughole, we can usually put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What affects the price in Compton
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Compton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

- Chips under the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic

Repairing versus replacing in Compton
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Compton
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, 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.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What areas do you cover?
All of Wolverhampton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will I be able to see the 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.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
