Bath Repair in Burraton
Local bath repair for Burraton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Bath repair in Burraton without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
FAQs for Burraton
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Do you need bath repair in Burraton?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
