How bath repair works in WV1

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  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.

Prices in WV1

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Signs you need bath repair

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips under the taps

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from WV1

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How much does bath repair cost in WV1?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
