Bath repair in Ford without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the day after. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Herefordshire.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
What we are called out for in Ford
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders

FAQs for Ford
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Do you cover Ford?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Ford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ford included. Travel is included in the price.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Typically it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price bath repair

- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
