Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath repair at your home in Bradford Peverell
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and chips on the rim or sides.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Bradford Peverell
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we are called out for in Bradford Peverell
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Bradford Peverell: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bradford Peverell.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Bradford Peverell included. Travel is included in the price.

What else we do in Bradford Peverell
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
