How we handle bath repair in Tunstall
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re frequently asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Questions from Tunstall
How much does bath repair cost in Tunstall?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you come to Tunstall?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Tunstall from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
