Bath chip & crack repair in Whitmore Reans, Wolverhampton
Damaged bath in Whitmore Reans? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage beneath the taps
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How we handle bath repair in Whitmore Reans
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Whitmore Reans. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
