Bath repair at your home in WF13
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and a hole punched through by something heavy, across roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Prices in WF13
Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What we are called out for in WF13
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
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.
Landlord and trade work in WF13
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in WF13 as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

WF13: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes WF13. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
