About our bath repair in Chipping Warden
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Chipping Warden: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

Landlord and trade work in Chipping Warden
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chipping Warden. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
