Bath repair across M45: what to expect

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We’re frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for M45. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in M45

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.
