Bath repair at your home in ST12

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are often asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and chips under the taps, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

What it costs in ST12

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What’s near Barlaston

We visit homes around Ormiston Sir Stanley Matthews Academy, Barlaston CofE (C) First School and Montagu C. Butler Library. Barlaston has its own railway station: Barlaston station. Nearby you’ll also find Harplands Hospital (4.3 miles north-west) and V&A Wedgwood Collection (0.6 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Hem Heath Woods.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

How the damage happens

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.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A chipped rim or side
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

ST12: your questions answered

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.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for ST12?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there a guarantee?

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