Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Childswickham
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Childswickham. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Childswickham: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Childswickham?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Childswickham
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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why Childswickham clients choose us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
