Bath repair in Dunham on Trent without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What affects the price in Dunham on Trent
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunham on Trent
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunham on Trent use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- A fixed quote before you book
- No need to remove anything

Your questions about bath repair in Dunham on Trent
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths

What else we do in Dunham on Trent
When to call us in Dunham on Trent
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What to look for in a quote
