Questions from West Heath

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to West Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Heath. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you protect the room?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and clean up before we leave.

How much does bath repair cost in West Heath?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your B31 postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How we handle bath repair in West Heath

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks and holes in acrylic baths and scratches and burns.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Heath as everywhere else we work. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding

When to call us in West Heath

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
