Bath repair near Seifton

About our bath repair in Seifton

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and holes from dropped items.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Common questions in Seifton

What does bath repair cost?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

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.

Do you come to Seifton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Seifton and the rest of Shropshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seifton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Seifton. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Seifton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Seifton

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
