- Repairs from £95

Common problems we fix in Burton Leonard
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Common reasons people in Burton Leonard contact us are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage beneath the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Bath repair in Burton Leonard without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colour-matched on site
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Burton Leonard, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Your questions about bath repair in Burton Leonard
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you cover Burton Leonard?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Burton Leonard from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burton Leonard
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burton Leonard as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
