When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Bath repair at your home in Baunton
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and snagging damage from a refit, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Baunton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Do you need bath repair in Baunton?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

- What protection goes down before work starts
Landlords, agents and businesses in Baunton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about bath repair in Baunton
Do you work in Baunton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Baunton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Baunton. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
