Bath repair in Melverley without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Melverley as everywhere else we work.

Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your photos

FAQs for Melverley
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
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.
When to call us in Melverley
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Melverley. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
