About our bath repair in Drayton Bassett
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about chips caused by builders and a hole punched through by something heavy.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Drayton Bassett. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Drayton Bassett
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
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.

FAQs for Drayton Bassett
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
