Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Carlton Colville
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Carlton Colville?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
What we’re called out for in Carlton Colville
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
What affects the price in Carlton Colville
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Carlton Colville?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
