About our bath repair in Clipsham
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Clipsham: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clipsham
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we’re called out for in Clipsham
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Clipsham
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Clipsham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Clipsham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
