Bath repair in Wolston without replacing anything

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We’re frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A steel bath rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Wolston

  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wolston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour-matched on site

Common problems we fix in Wolston

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

10 questions to ask before you book

Wolston: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Wolston.

Do you come to Wolston?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wolston. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
