Common questions in Cotgrave
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What else we do in Cotgrave
Common problems we fix in Cotgrave
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Holes from dropped items
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Repair or replace in Cotgrave?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cotgrave
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
