Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about a chip where the taps sit and chips caused by builders.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Frithsden
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frithsden as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price

Advice
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Frithsden. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Frithsden
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price

Should you replace it?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for Frithsden
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
How much does bath repair cost in Frithsden?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HP1 postcode.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
