Bath repair in Eggleston, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a chipped rim or side.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What else we do in Eggleston
Do you need bath repair in Eggleston?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips under the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Eggleston
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Eggleston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Eggleston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
