How we handle bath repair in Sharpway Gate

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips under the taps, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it 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. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Sharpway Gate

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Sharpway Gate?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Sharpway Gate questions

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Sharpway Gate and the rest of Worcestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you cover Sharpway Gate?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Sharpway Gate. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
