How we handle bath repair in Wick Hill

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and holes from dropped items.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wick Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Signs you need bath repair in Wick Hill

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should you replace it?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
