Bath repair in East Compton, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with a chip where the taps sit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to East Compton. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
East Compton: your questions answered
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, 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 picture.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in East Compton.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in East Compton
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
