Bath repair in Laughton en le Morthen without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and a cracked acrylic bath.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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 normally use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for Laughton en le Morthen
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
