How we handle bath repair in Sandon
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chip where the taps sit.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandon
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Do you need bath repair in Sandon?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Holes from dropped items

FAQs for Sandon
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Staffordshire.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Repairing versus replacing in Sandon
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Sandon
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sandon. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
