Bath repair in Wanborough without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a kit repair that didn’t last and deep scratches in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Common problems we fix in Wanborough
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What else we do in Wanborough
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlord and trade work in Wanborough
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Wanborough, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- 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 will say what we think.

Wanborough questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
