When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Bath repair in Harpsden Bottom, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. We work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips along the edge of the bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Harpsden Bottom
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote

- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Harpsden Bottom. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
