Bath repair in Heathton, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

What we can’t put right

- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Heathton: your questions answered
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Heathton?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Heathton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Heathton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Do you need bath repair in Heathton?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders
