Bath repair at your home in Wollaston
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

FAQs for Wollaston
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you cover Wollaston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wollaston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wollaston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Signs you need bath repair in Wollaston
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Look out for these signs:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips caused by builders
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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 book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A fixed quote before you book
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
