When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How we handle bath repair in Allexton
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Allexton
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Allexton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Allexton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Signs you need bath repair in Allexton
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips under the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
