Bath repair in Beltinge without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and chips on the rim or sides, across whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Do you need bath repair in Beltinge?
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
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.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What affects the price in Beltinge
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
