Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repairing versus replacing in Great Denham
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it
- Usually one visit, start to finish

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Denham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

What else we do in Great Denham
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
FAQs for Great Denham
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover the entire of Bedford Borough?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Denham included. Travel is included in the price.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
