Bath chip & crack repair in Major's Green, Solihull
Our repair technicians come to Major's Green for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Bath repair in Major's Green without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the following day. We are often asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips under the taps, in whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Questions from Major's Green
Do you cover the entire of Solihull?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Major's Green. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Major's Green
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Major's Green
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
