For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Albury. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath repair in Albury
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A steel bath rusted through

Questions from Albury
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Albury and the rest of Surrey. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
