What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Westhouses
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Landlord and trade work in Westhouses
For anyone letting property in or around Westhouses, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DE55 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Westhouses
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Westhouses for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
