Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath repair in Barney without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s 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 chips on the rim or sides and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Barney, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Signs you need bath repair in Barney
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage beneath the taps

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Questions from Barney
Can tenants book a repair?

Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
