What else we do in Fairy Cross
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Fairy Cross questions
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not 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.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

- A fixed quote before you book

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Use gentle, 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.
What we are called out for in Fairy Cross
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fairy Cross
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath
For a price in Fairy Cross, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
