What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park

If you manage property in Common Side, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Common Side. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we are called out for in Common Side
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Common questions in Common Side
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
