How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

About our bath repair in Dunecht
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and a hole punched through by something heavy, in pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Have new chips seen to early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
What we are called out for in Dunecht
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic

What affects the price in Dunecht
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunecht. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dunecht, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Dunecht
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Dunecht. Prices don’t change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
