How we handle bath repair in Hatley St George
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with rust spots around the plughole and snagging damage from a refit, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

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. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Hatley St George
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Clients usually contact us about:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What else we do in Hatley St George
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Hatley St George
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Hatley St George?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hatley St George and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
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.
