Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adber as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Bath repair at your home in Adber
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Adber
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A chip where the taps sit
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips caused by builders

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Adber. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Adber, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Adber
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
