Bath repair in Jamestown without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Jamestown
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you work in Jamestown?
We do. Technicians travel to Jamestown from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

What else we do in Jamestown
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Do you need bath repair in Jamestown?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Landlord and trade work in Jamestown
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
