Typical jobs include chips on the rim or sides and holes from dropped items, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Barrowden
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
How much does bath repair cost in Barrowden?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you need bath repair in Barrowden?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What affects the price in Barrowden
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
