Bath Repair in Caston

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in Caston, done in place
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We are frequently asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and a cracked acrylic bath, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
You don’t 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.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 normally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Caston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair

Questions from Caston
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
