Bath repair at your home in Guilton
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips caused by builders, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Guilton
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why Guilton customers choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour mixed on the day to match
Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Related advice
Your questions about bath repair in Guilton
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Guilton
For anyone letting property in or around Guilton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Guilton. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures 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.
When to call us in Guilton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
