About our bath repair in Amersham

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and rust by the waste and overflow.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Amersham questions

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Amersham is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel

Repair or replace: which is better?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Common problems we fix in Amersham

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, 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.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips under the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
