Bath repair near Gorsebrook

About our bath repair in Gorsebrook

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Questions from Gorsebrook

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you come to Gorsebrook?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gorsebrook and the rest of Wolverhampton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

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’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Gorsebrook, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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.

When to call us in Gorsebrook

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Repairing versus replacing in Gorsebrook

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 takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
