Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Debden Green and across Essex.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Debden Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What else we do in Debden Green
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Your questions about bath repair in Debden Green
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

We do. Technicians travel to Debden Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Normally one visit, start to finish
