What we do, step by step

- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Bath repair at your home in Abbotsham
Bath repair is our most common job. 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 pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and a chipped rim or side.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Abbotsham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Abbotsham. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Abbotsham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about bath repair in Abbotsham
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
We cover the whole UK, including Abbotsham and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
