Common questions in Holton Heath
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Holton Heath?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How we handle bath repair in Holton Heath
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Holton Heath
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Holton Heath
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
