Bath repair in Grendon without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and chips caused by builders, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Grendon, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Questions from Grendon
What areas do you cover?
All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
