How we handle bath repair in Fairhaven
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about chips caused by builders and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Store metal items away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

FAQs for Fairhaven
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
What affects the price in Fairhaven
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Fairhaven. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
