Surface repairs across WS13

Bath repair at your home in WS13

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and chips along the edge of the bath.

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What it costs in WS13

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in WS13

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in WS13

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

WS13: your questions answered

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I get a price for bath repair in WS13?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your WS13 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
