Bath repair in Holloway Down without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the day after. If you’re dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and a chip where the taps sit, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need bath repair in Holloway Down
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Questions from Holloway Down
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you cover Holloway Down?
We do. We send a technician to Holloway Down for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Holloway Down
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
