FAQs for Caunton
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How we handle bath repair in Caunton
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Caunton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common problems we fix in Caunton
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
