How we handle bath repair in Hungerford
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Signs you need bath repair in Hungerford
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Hungerford questions
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- 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.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
