Bath repair at your home in Upper Cotton
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. A repair stops both. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What we’re called out for in Upper Cotton
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel

What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

- A steel bath rusted through

Landlord and trade work in Upper Cotton
If you manage property in Upper Cotton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry

Your questions about bath repair in Upper Cotton
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
