Bath repair at your home in Stourbridge

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stourbridge use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

FAQs for Stourbridge

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Dudley. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Stourbridge

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.
