Bath repair at your home in Long Meadowend
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the day after. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Signs you need bath repair in Long Meadowend
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

What affects the price in Long Meadowend
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
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’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Long Meadowend. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Long Meadowend customers choose us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One price list for the whole UK
- Everything repaired in place

Long Meadowend: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Long Meadowend?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
