About our bath repair in Hereford
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Hereford: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

When to call us in Hereford
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Have new chips seen to early
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
What affects the price in Hereford
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
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 will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hereford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Hereford customers choose us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
- Normally one visit, start to finish
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
