Bath repair at your home in Glebe Farm
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and impact holes in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your MK17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace in Glebe Farm?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. We do not 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What else we do in Glebe Farm
Signs you need bath repair in Glebe Farm
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Common questions in Glebe Farm
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your MK17 postcode.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
What happens on the day
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 a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
