Bath repair at your home in Ebford
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need bath repair in Ebford
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- Work done at your home or business

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Ebford. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, 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, which makes it well worth repairing.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
