Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Bath repair at your home in Burbage
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with a chip where the taps sit and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Burbage. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Burbage. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Common questions in Burbage
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Burbage?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
