Bath chip & crack repair in Farndon, Nottinghamshire
Bath repair in Farndon without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage beneath the taps
- Holes from dropped items
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Bath repair at your home in Farndon
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re often asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Farndon, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Farndon questions
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?
We work UK-wide, so Farndon is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Farndon?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Do you need bath repair in Farndon?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rusty patches near the plughole
