Bath repair for Twyford homes

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Bath repair in Twyford, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the following day. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and holes from dropped items, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Twyford and across Shropshire.

Rusty chip next to a bath plughole, before and after repair

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

There’s 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 it’s worth getting them done early.

Your questions about bath repair in Twyford

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

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.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you need bath repair in Twyford?

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

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

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Twyford clients choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
