How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

When to call us in Groton
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
- How changes to the job are handled
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 frequently lifts.
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.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Repairing versus replacing in Groton
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. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Groton
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Groton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Groton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
