- Repairs from £95
- A chip where the taps sit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and rust spots around the plughole, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath repair in Blackridge
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairing versus replacing in Blackridge
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- A fixed quote before you book
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Blackridge, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Landlord and trade work in Blackridge
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
If you manage property in Blackridge, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
