How we handle bath repair in Little Wyrley
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and damage beneath the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Little Wyrley
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
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.
Do you come to Little Wyrley?
We do. Technicians travel to Little Wyrley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Wyrley
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Little Wyrley, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
