Bath repair near Whitehills

Bath repair at your home in Whitehills

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We are often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and chips on the rim or sides, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.

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

Bath enamel chip by the waste, filled and colour matched (before and after)

When to call us in Whitehills

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Whitehills, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Questions from Whitehills

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.

Are there extra charges for Whitehills?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you come to Whitehills?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Whitehills. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Whitehills

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, 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.
