About our bath repair in Bures
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips caused by builders, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bures
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairing versus replacing in Bures
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One price list for the whole UK

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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 early repairs matter.
Common questions in Bures
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Bures?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you come to Bures?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bures for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
