About our bath repair in High Bickington
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repair or replace in High Bickington?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EX37 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in High Bickington?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
