Bath repair for West Town homes

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Related advice

Bath repair in West Town, done in place

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

How to compare quotes

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

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’s the part we put right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace in West Town?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Town. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
