Bath repair at your home in Whateley
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with a chipped rim or side and a chip where the taps sit, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Repair or replace in Whateley?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Whateley
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whateley
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whateley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Whateley
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips under the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Your questions about bath repair in Whateley
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
