How we handle bath repair in Stoke Aldermoor
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips caused by builders.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Stoke Aldermoor and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What we are called out for in Stoke Aldermoor
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips under the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos 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
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CV3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
