How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Do you need bath repair in Brisley?

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Landlord and trade work in Brisley

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Have new chips seen to early

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Brisley: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

How much does bath repair cost in Brisley?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
