West Vale questions
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to West Vale. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in West Vale, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
