What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Bullington get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
FAQs for Bullington
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
