How we handle bath repair in Chieveley
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and impact holes in acrylic.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Berkshire.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chieveley. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Repair or replace in Chieveley?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A fixed quote before booking

Common questions in Chieveley
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Chieveley included. Travel is included in the price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Chieveley
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chipped rim or side
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
