Bath repair at your home in Westmill
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Westmill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westmill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
FAQs for Westmill
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse it down after each bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
