About our bath repair in Welton Hill

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the following day. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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, in much the same way.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Welton Hill: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Welton Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Welton Hill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welton Hill

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welton Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

When to call us in Welton Hill

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
