FAQs for East Garston Woodlands
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in East Garston Woodlands?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Garston Woodlands and the rest of West Berkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Bath repair at your home in East Garston Woodlands
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are cracks in an acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Garston Woodlands. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why East Garston Woodlands customers choose us
- No extra charge for your area

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Garston Woodlands. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
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.
When to call us in East Garston Woodlands
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
