Landlord and trade work in Chesterton
If you manage property in Chesterton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Common questions in Chesterton
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Signs you need bath repair in Chesterton
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
