Repair or replace in Stanks?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Stanks, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Do you need bath repair in Stanks?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanks
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down 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 care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Stanks
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
