Bath repair in Threapwood without replacing anything
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Threapwood and across Staffordshire.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Common problems we fix in Threapwood
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps

Your questions about bath repair in Threapwood
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
