What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Bath repair in Burton Overy without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips caused by builders, in whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Repair or replace in Burton Overy?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Burton Overy questions
Are there extra charges for Burton Overy?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Burton Overy?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you need bath repair in Burton Overy?
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
