What affects the price in Westley
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Westley. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Westley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How we handle bath repair in Westley
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
When to call us in Westley
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Customers generally contact us about:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Your questions about bath repair in Westley
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
