About our bath repair in Dulcote
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Dulcote
If you manage property in Dulcote, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Dulcote: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What we’re called out for in Dulcote
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
