What affects the price in Gushmere
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
About our bath repair in Gushmere
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gushmere as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Most customers in Gushmere get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Look after 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.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic

Gushmere questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How much does bath repair cost in Gushmere?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your ME13 postcode.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
