Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips caused by builders, we can typically put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barford St Martin

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Barford St Martin

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barford St Martin. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Most customers in Barford St Martin get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rust spots around the plughole

10 questions to ask before you book

Barford St Martin questions

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally within a day, depending on the repair.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
