How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Your questions about bath repair in Warner's End

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Warner's End?

We do. We send a technician to Warner's End for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Warner's End included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
