Bath repair at your home in Gorsley Common

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, we can generally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Gorsley Common

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gorsley Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Gorsley Common questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Herefordshire.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

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

Is my repair covered?

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Gorsley Common

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Holes from dropped items
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
