Bath chip & crack repair in Farley Hill, Luton
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Farley Hill, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage beneath the taps

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath repair in Farley Hill without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chip where the taps sit.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Farley Hill and across Luton.

Common questions in Farley Hill
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Landlord and trade work in Farley Hill
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour-matched on site

Common problems we fix in Farley Hill
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price covers travel
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
