Holcombe questions
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
About our bath repair in Holcombe
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, across pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common problems we fix in Holcombe
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Holcombe. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
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.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Holcombe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holcombe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Same prices wherever you are
