Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we handle bath repair in Bottesford
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and chips along the edge of the bath, we can generally put it right, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Bottesford
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What else we do in Bottesford
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bottesford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Bottesford
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bottesford. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bottesford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Signs you need bath repair in Bottesford
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips caused by builders
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
