Bath repair in Haughley Green without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Haughley Green
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Same prices wherever you are

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Haughley Green. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Haughley Green, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from Haughley Green
How much does bath repair cost in Haughley Green?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
