What affects the price in Caton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Caton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Caton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
Your questions about bath repair in Caton
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Caton?
We do. We send a technician to Caton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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 a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Other services in Caton
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
