Bath Repair for Gubblecote homes
We travel to Gubblecote for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused by builders
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
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.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We are often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and holes from dropped items, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Do you need bath repair in Gubblecote?
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
