Bath repair at your home in Church Gresley
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’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about a cracked acrylic bath and rust spots around the plughole.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Church Gresley
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you come to Church Gresley?
We do. We send a technician to Church Gresley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What affects the price in Church Gresley
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Landlord and trade work in Church Gresley
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
