Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Bath repair in Fairoak, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can normally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Fairoak questions
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What areas do you cover?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Fairoak
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
