When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
FAQs for Lenton Abbey
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Nottingham.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the whole of Nottingham?
All of Nottingham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
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.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Lenton Abbey
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
