How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Bath repair in Hammerpot, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, 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. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Hammerpot and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath repair in Hammerpot
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

- Chips along the edge of the bath

- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
