What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How we handle bath repair in Atherfield Green
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a chipped rim or side and deep scratches in acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about bath repair in Atherfield Green
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
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.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Atherfield Green. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Atherfield Green
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Atherfield Green
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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 we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
