Your questions about bath repair in Little Heath
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Little Heath?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Little Heath from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in Little Heath
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Heath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Little Heath
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Landlord and trade work in Little Heath
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
