DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath repair in Foxley, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can normally bathe again the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are frequently asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and a chip where the taps sit, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Foxley and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we’re called out for in Foxley
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Foxley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Foxley: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you come to Foxley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Foxley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Repair or replace in Foxley?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
