Bath repair for Fradley homes

Bath repair in Fradley, done in place

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Fradley and across Staffordshire.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

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.

Questions from Fradley

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Fradley.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Fradley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Fradley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What affects the price in Fradley

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fradley

For anyone letting property in or around Fradley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When to call us in Fradley

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves 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 we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Fradley clients choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
