Bath Repair for Dudley Hill homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Dudley Hill, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips under the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. 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.
Bath repair in Dudley Hill without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and chips caused by builders.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we’re called out for in Dudley Hill
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What affects the price in Dudley Hill
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dudley Hill. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Dudley Hill: your questions answered
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Dudley Hill.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. 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. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
