Bath Repair for Wain Lee homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Wain Lee, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Bath repair in Wain Lee, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
When to call us in Wain Lee
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath

How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wain Lee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Wain Lee
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you cover Wain Lee?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wain Lee for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What affects the price in Wain Lee
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
