About our bath repair in Hanmer
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and rusty patches near the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Hanmer questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Hanmer?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- A fixed quote before you book
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
