Advice
About our bath repair in Willington Worthenbury
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and rusty patches near the plughole.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Willington Worthenbury and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

About bath chip & crack repair
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common problems we fix in Willington Worthenbury
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Your questions about bath repair in Willington Worthenbury
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Willington Worthenbury. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
