Landlords, agents and businesses in Alconbury Weald
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alconbury Weald as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Questions from Alconbury Weald

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Alconbury Weald for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Should you replace it?
