Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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 normally use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Alberbury clients choose us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel

Alberbury: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Common problems we fix in Alberbury
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
