- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Questions from Arlington
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?
All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Arlington, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What else we do in Arlington

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
