How we handle bath repair in Alderney
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Alderney
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything

What we are called out for in Alderney
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Alderney: your questions answered
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.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Poole. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
