About our bath repair in Great Addington
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Questions from Great Addington
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

When to call us in Great Addington
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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 the part we put right.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
