For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle bath repair in Fairstead
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can normally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repairing versus replacing in Fairstead
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Fairstead questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you cover Fairstead?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fairstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense 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. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When to call us in Fairstead
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips under the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.

Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Most clients in Fairstead get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
