Bath repair near Lamport

Bath repair at your home in Lamport

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage from a refit and a kit repair that didn’t last.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Questions from Lamport

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of Buckinghamshire?

All of Buckinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Do you need bath repair in Lamport?

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
