For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fletton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How we handle bath repair in Fletton
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fletton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures 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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Do you need bath repair in Fletton?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
If you’re in Fletton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Fletton questions
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
