Repair or replace in Stoke Prior?

Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

About our bath repair in Stoke Prior

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and rust spots around the plughole, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Stoke Prior

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Stoke Prior

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Your questions about bath repair in Stoke Prior

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HR6 postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
