About our bath repair in West Stow
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Repairing versus replacing in West Stow
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for West Stow. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in West Stow
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
FAQs for West Stow
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so West Stow is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-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.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
