Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Bath repair in Wargrave, done in place

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Common call-outs are for holes from dropped items and chips under the taps, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Wargrave and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Your questions about bath repair in Wargrave

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you cover Wargrave?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wargrave from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wargrave, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

For anyone letting property in or around Wargrave, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

When to call us in Wargrave

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
