What affects the price in Grimscott
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Bath repair in Grimscott without replacing anything
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about chips along the edge of the bath and a chip where the taps sit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Your questions about bath repair in Grimscott
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you work in Grimscott?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Grimscott for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are there extra charges for Grimscott?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Grimscott, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
