Bath repair in Welham, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. 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, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about damage beneath the taps and rusty patches near the plughole.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What affects the price in Welham
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we are called out for in Welham
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repair or replace in Welham?
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 the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Welham questions
Do you work in Welham?
We do. We send a technician to Welham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Welham?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
