How we handle bath repair in Great Leighs
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Great Leighs
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you need bath repair in Great Leighs?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Great Leighs. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairing versus replacing in Great Leighs
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
