Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Bath repair in Lane End, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about a chipped rim or side and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Signs you need bath repair in Lane End
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders

Common questions in Lane End
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lane End
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
