What we are called out for in Nether Whitacre

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being 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 will start to rust.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips under the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath

How we handle bath repair in Nether Whitacre

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Nether Whitacre

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

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.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Questions from Nether Whitacre

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Landlord and trade work in Nether Whitacre

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nether Whitacre as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
