Bath repair at your home in Crookedholm
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KA3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What affects the price in Crookedholm
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Crookedholm. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Your questions about bath repair in Crookedholm
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work in Crookedholm?
We do. We send a technician to Crookedholm for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crookedholm as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Crookedholm. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK
- Normally one visit, start to finish
