About our bath repair in Halesowen
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for chips under the taps and rusty patches near the plughole, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What else we do in Halesowen
Common problems we fix in Halesowen
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Halesowen. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Materials we repair

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
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.

Halesowen: your questions answered
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Halesowen?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Halesowen and the rest of Dudley. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Halesowen. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
