How we handle bath repair in College Milton
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

When we would advise against a repair

- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in College Milton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Questions from College Milton
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in College Milton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
