Bath repair in Hellidon, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are frequently asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and impact holes in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairing versus replacing in Hellidon
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Colour-matched on site
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Hellidon: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you work in Hellidon?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Hellidon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Northamptonshire.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NN11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we’re called out for in Hellidon
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Store metal items away from the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
