Common problems we fix in Croft
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.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Croft. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Croft
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Croft.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Landlord and trade work in Croft
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
