Bath repair in Stocklinch, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We’re often asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stocklinch as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about bath repair in Stocklinch
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
When to call us in Stocklinch
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
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 is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
