Bath repair in Belchalwell, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s a chip where the taps sit and rusty patches near the plughole, we can usually put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Repair or replace in Belchalwell?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
