Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Bath repair in Goodleigh without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and chips along the edge of the bath.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Goodleigh and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Goodleigh
Do you come to Goodleigh?
We do. We send a technician to Goodleigh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What we are called out for in Goodleigh
Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage beneath the taps
