How we handle bath repair in Woodlands

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We’re often asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about bath repair in Woodlands

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

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

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Woodlands clients choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Woodlands

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
