How we handle bath repair in Lions Green
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in Lions Green
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TN21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lions Green as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Common problems we fix in Lions Green
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Common reasons people in Lions Green contact us include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
