Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Bath repair at your home in Charlton Marshall
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Charlton Marshall questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Charlton Marshall?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Charlton Marshall from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Are there extra charges for Charlton Marshall?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Do you need bath repair in Charlton Marshall?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What a repair cannot fix

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us

- Colour-matched on site
- We leave the room as we found it
- One price list for the entire UK

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
