Bath repair near Wheaton Aston

Bath repair at your home in Wheaton Aston

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and impact holes in acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we are called out for in Wheaton Aston

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Wheaton Aston customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Wheaton Aston

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wheaton Aston

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Wheaton Aston: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Staffordshire.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
