FAQs for Blaby
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What we are called out for in Blaby
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips under the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlord and trade work in Blaby
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Blaby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What else we do in Blaby
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Blaby
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Blaby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
