Bath repair in Fankerton without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
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.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace in Fankerton?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No need to remove anything
- Typically one visit, start to finish
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What affects the price in Fankerton
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Fankerton. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: 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 photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
