Landlords, agents and businesses in Stoke

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stoke

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stoke. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Do you need bath repair in Stoke?

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips under the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

Can you repair several things at once?
