How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
About our bath repair in Dunton
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rust spots around the plughole.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Your questions about bath repair in Dunton
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Dunton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Dunton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you need bath repair in Dunton?
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.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
