DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle bath repair in Wilkinthroop
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rust by the waste and overflow, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

What else we do in Wilkinthroop
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wilkinthroop
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Repair or replace in Wilkinthroop?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Honest limits

Your questions about bath repair in Wilkinthroop
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
