Repairing versus replacing in Staplers
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No extra charge for your area

Advice
What we are called out for in Staplers
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole

Your questions about bath repair in Staplers
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Are there extra charges for Staplers?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Staplers
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Isle of Wight and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
