Bath repair at your home in Betton
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and damage beneath the taps.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Betton and across Shropshire.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. 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. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Questions from Betton
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Betton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Betton?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What affects the price in Betton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Betton
For anyone letting property in or around Betton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Betton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Betton
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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.
Do you need bath repair in Betton?
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
