Bath repair at your home in Briar Hill
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. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and impact holes in acrylic, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Briar Hill
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
FAQs for Briar Hill
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?
The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you work in Briar Hill?
We do. We send a technician to Briar Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site
Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Have new chips seen to early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Briar Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
