Bath repair at your home in Ditton Priors
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can generally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ditton Priors as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
When to call us in Ditton Priors
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Common questions in Ditton Priors
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
