Bath repair in Stanton without replacing anything
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. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chipped rim or side, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath repair in Stanton
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Common problems we fix in Stanton
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Stanton. The price depends on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
