Your questions about bath repair in Fradley South
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.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
About our bath repair in Fradley South
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about a chipped rim or side and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we’re called out for in Fradley South
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
