Common problems we fix in Acharacle
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath

Common questions in Acharacle
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Acharacle?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Acharacle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in Acharacle and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Acharacle
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Should you replace it?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
