FAQs for Barton
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gloucestershire.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you come to Barton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Barton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How we handle bath repair in Barton
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and damage beneath the taps, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One visit for most repairs

Do you need bath repair in Barton?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
