About our bath repair in Rahane
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and rusty patches near the plughole, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rahane as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Do you need bath repair in Rahane?
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Rahane. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 the part we put right.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
