About our bath repair in Framsden
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Framsden
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Framsden
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Framsden. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Do you need bath repair in Framsden?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Common reasons people in Framsden contact us are:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides

Framsden questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
