Bath repair in Wike, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and chips on the rim or sides, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Wike. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When to call us in Wike
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
FAQs for Wike
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does bath repair cost in Wike?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
