Bath Repair in Gordon
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Gordon, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rust spots around the plughole
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
Bath repair in Gordon without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We are often asked to fix damage beneath the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath repair in Gordon
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gordon as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Questions from Gordon
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
