Bath Repair for Fairford homes
We travel to Fairford for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath repair in Fairford, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. 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. If you’re dealing with chips caused by builders and a cracked acrylic bath, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairford as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Fairford. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Fairford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
There’s 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Fairford
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gloucestershire.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
When to call us in Fairford
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 is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
