Bath repair at your home in Hunton
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and a hole punched through by something heavy, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common questions in Hunton
Are there extra charges for Hunton?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Hunton included. Travel is included in the price.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Repair or replace in Hunton?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
