How we handle bath repair in Godmanchester
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are rusty patches near the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Godmanchester as everywhere else we work.

Godmanchester questions
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
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.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Godmanchester.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Do you come to Godmanchester?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Godmanchester and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Whirlpool & spa baths

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
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.

- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit

- Ensure the room can be ventilated
