Bath repair at your home in Carlton
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and a chip where the taps sit.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Carlton. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Carlton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Carlton questions
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Are there extra charges for Carlton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
