Lee Moor: your questions answered
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you work in Lee Moor?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lee Moor from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Bath repair in Lee Moor, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lee Moor, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Lee Moor
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lee Moor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Signs you need bath repair in Lee Moor
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- A chip where the taps sit
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
