Bath repair in Calverton, done in place
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and rust spots around the plughole, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
