About our bath repair in Wincobank
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Before we arrive

Advice
FAQs for Wincobank
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we’re called out for in Wincobank
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, 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 picture:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
