Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Leigh Woods. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Leigh Woods. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Bath repair in Leigh Woods without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and damage beneath the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Leigh Woods
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Leigh Woods?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Leigh Woods from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Common problems we fix in Leigh Woods
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
