We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
Bath repair in Lightwood Green, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lightwood Green. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Your questions about bath repair in Lightwood Green
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Do you need bath repair in Lightwood Green?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Lightwood Green
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. 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.
