Need bath repair in Rolleston on Dove?

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Bath repair in Rolleston on Dove without replacing anything

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. We’re frequently asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and a kit repair that didn’t last, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rolleston on Dove and across Staffordshire.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

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

Your questions about bath repair in Rolleston on Dove

How invisible is a bath repair?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Rolleston on Dove and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. 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’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
