Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Barton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Barton.

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
