For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Hewelsfield Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Bath repair in Hewelsfield Common, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the day after. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are rusty patches near the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Repairs by material
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

FAQs for Hewelsfield Common
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
