Bath repair in Wicklane without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and a chipped rim or side.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wicklane. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

Wicklane questions
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How much does bath repair cost in Wicklane?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
