Bath repair in Walpole Marsh

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Bath repair at your home in Walpole Marsh

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Walpole Marsh

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Walpole Marsh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Common problems we fix in Walpole Marsh

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repair or replace in Walpole Marsh?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Walpole Marsh. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price
