How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Common problems we fix in Kingston on Soar
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- What preparation is included
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What affects the price in Kingston on Soar
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Kingston on Soar
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Kingston on Soar. Prices don’t change with location.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you come to Kingston on Soar?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kingston on Soar for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
