Your questions about bath repair in Windy Harbour
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repairing versus replacing in Windy Harbour
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally 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.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Do you need bath repair in Windy Harbour?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chipped rim or side
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Windy Harbour
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Windy Harbour use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
