Your questions about bath repair in Great Stretton
Do you work in Great Stretton?
We do. We send a technician to Great Stretton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Leicester. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the repair show?
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.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Great Stretton?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE2 postcode.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
About our bath repair in Great Stretton
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and rusty patches near the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Great Stretton
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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Great Stretton
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips caused by builders
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
What affects the price in Great Stretton
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Great Stretton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
