Landlord and trade work in Poundstock
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
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.
Bath repair in Poundstock, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you are dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and chips under the taps, we can normally put it right.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath repair in Poundstock?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Common questions in Poundstock
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Repairing versus replacing in Poundstock
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Poundstock
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Poundstock. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Poundstock, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
