How we handle bath repair in Wartling
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and chips on the rim or sides.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What else we do in Wartling
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Questions from Wartling
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
