Bath Repair in Huntingdonshire
Our technicians come to Huntingdonshire for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Bath repair in Huntingdonshire without replacing anything
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about a chip where the taps sit and a hole punched through by something heavy.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Huntingdonshire
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 last.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When to call us in Huntingdonshire
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
