FAQs for Stanningfield
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Stanningfield?
We do. Technicians travel to Stanningfield from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stanningfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath repair in Stanningfield?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
