About our bath repair in East Hatley
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
What affects the price in East Hatley
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.
What we’re called out for in East Hatley
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
Before booking anyone
