Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Bath repair at your home in Walsgrave on Sowe
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Walsgrave on Sowe
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chipped rim or side

Questions from Walsgrave on Sowe
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Walsgrave on Sowe is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Walsgrave on Sowe?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Repair or replace in Walsgrave on Sowe?

You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re 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.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Walsgrave on Sowe, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Other services in Walsgrave on Sowe
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What affects the price in Walsgrave on Sowe
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
