About our bath repair in Bury Green
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

FAQs for Bury Green
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
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.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Bury Green and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
