Bath repair at your home in Egginton
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with chips under the taps and a chipped rim or side, we can typically put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Egginton
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What affects the price in Egginton
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Egginton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common problems we fix in Egginton
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips under the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
