About our bath repair in Stoke Prior

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Whether it’s a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Do you need bath repair in Stoke Prior?

Rust typically 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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Stoke Prior

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Stoke Prior?

We do. We send a technician to Stoke Prior for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a bath repair permanent?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Stoke Prior. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
