How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should you replace it?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Edge End as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
