Bath repair at your home in Freshford
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust by the waste and overflow, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When to call us in Freshford
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Questions from Freshford
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Freshford?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Freshford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Freshford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repairs by material
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 is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
