Bath repair at your home in West Tytherley

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and a hole punched through by something heavy, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in West Tytherley and across Wiltshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What we’re called out for in West Tytherley

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips caused by builders

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

West Tytherley: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
