Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
Bath repair in Barton Town without replacing anything
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are damage beneath the taps and holes from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Barton Town
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Look out for these signs:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Barton Town
Barton Town: your questions answered
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you come to Barton Town?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Barton Town from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
