Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Diggle Green

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are there extra charges for Diggle Green?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

When can I have a bath again?

Generally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Diggle Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Diggle Green customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
