How we handle bath repair in Kingsey
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and snagging damage from a refit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingsey use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Look after 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.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kingsey. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
