Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath repair in Frilsham
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Landlord and trade work in Frilsham
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frilsham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RG18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath repair in Frilsham
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Does someone need to be in?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are there extra charges for Frilsham?

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
