What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

How we handle bath repair in Dawley

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and chips under the taps, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Signs you need bath repair in Dawley

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Dawley questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Telford and Wrekin.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Dawley?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dawley. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
