Bath repair in Bletsoe, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bedford Borough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Store metal items away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Bletsoe questions
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work in Bletsoe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bletsoe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
When to call us in Bletsoe
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bletsoe. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your MK44 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
