How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Laxton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Laxton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Signs you need bath repair in Laxton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Laxton
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Fixed prices from your pictures

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Laxton questions
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you work in Laxton?
We do. We send a technician to Laxton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
