About our bath repair in Westwoodside

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and impact holes in acrylic, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

FAQs for Westwoodside

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Westwoodside, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
