Bath chip & crack repair in Arle, Gloucestershire
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Arle, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Bath repair in Arle without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. 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. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and snagging damage from a refit, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Arle
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Arle?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What we do, step by step
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 work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Arle, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Do you need bath repair in Arle?
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

- What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Arle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
