Bath repair in Webheath, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Webheath and across Worcestershire.

Repairing versus replacing in Webheath
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Webheath: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Worcestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you come to Webheath?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Webheath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
