For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stitchcombe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Stitchcombe questions

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Common problems we fix in Stitchcombe

Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

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.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

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