Bath repair in Woodhall without replacing anything

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last, in cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What we’re called out for in Woodhall

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Woodhall: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can landlords book you?

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
