Bath repair at your home in WR11

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures 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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What you will pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Repair or replace?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in WR11 use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about bath repair in WR11

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
