How we handle bath repair in Kelshall
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust by the waste and overflow, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What affects the price in Kelshall
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kelshall, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kelshall
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
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 the part we put right.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Questions from Kelshall

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How much does bath repair cost in Kelshall?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
