About our bath repair in Dottery
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and chips caused by builders, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
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 small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Signs you need bath repair in Dottery
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dottery
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What else we do in Dottery
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Dottery
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What affects the price in Dottery
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
