About bath repair in WR7

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked acrylic bath and chips under the taps.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. 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.

Landlord and trade work in WR7

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place.

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Common questions in WR7

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Worcestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
