Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle bath repair in Wardle

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the following day. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and rust by the waste and overflow, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CW5 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Most customers in Wardle get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wardle as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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

What we work on

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CW5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

What we’re called out for in Wardle

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Holes from dropped items

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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 tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
