Advice
About our bath repair in Fosten Green
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, usually in a single visit. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can typically put it right, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Fosten Green questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does bath repair cost in Fosten Green?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your TN27 postcode.
Do you come to Fosten Green?
We do. Technicians travel to Fosten Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
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.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Fosten Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Fosten Green get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Do you need bath repair in Fosten Green?
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Common reasons people in Fosten Green contact us include:
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
