Bath chip & crack repair in West Heath, Birmingham
Problem with your bath in West Heath? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Bath repair in West Heath without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for hairline or through cracks in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in West Heath
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
