Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
About our bath repair in Knowl Wall
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 fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Your questions about bath repair in Knowl Wall
How do I get a price for bath repair in Knowl Wall?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Stoke-on-Trent.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Common problems we fix in Knowl Wall
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
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.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are

- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
