How we handle bath repair in Ravenstone

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ravenstone. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Landlord and trade work in Ravenstone

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ravenstone use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Repairing versus replacing in Ravenstone

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Ravenstone customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area

Questions from Ravenstone

Do you cover Ravenstone?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ravenstone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Ravenstone?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
