How we handle bath repair in Eggesford
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. If you have hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips under the taps, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
In a village like Eggesford, some baths have been in for many years. A sound older bath is well worth repairing.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Eggesford
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Eggesford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
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 it pays to deal with it early.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days. For a rural address like Eggesford, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the bath repair, so there is no second trip.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
