Trusted bath repair in Linthurst

Bath repair in Linthurst, done in place

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can help, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Questions from Linthurst

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Linthurst and the rest of Worcestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Worcestershire.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Worcestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Linthurst, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

What we are called out for in Linthurst

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Linthurst

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
