Bath repair in Botloe's Green, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Common questions in Botloe's Green
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gloucestershire.
Are there extra charges for Botloe's Green?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Botloe's Green?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your GL18 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
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 usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before you book
- Typically one visit, start to finish
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

What affects the price in Botloe's Green
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

- Snagging damage from a refit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
