FAQs for Witton Park
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Repair or replace in Witton Park?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Witton Park customers choose us
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it

- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Witton Park
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Witton Park, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Witton Park
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
