How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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, usually the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Common questions in Duckett's Green

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

How invisible is a bath 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.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When to call us in Duckett's Green

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips under the taps
  • A chipped rim or side

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Duckett's Green. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Duckett's Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
