Related advice
Bath repair at your home in Litlington
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the following day. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and a hole punched through by something heavy, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Litlington questions
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Landlord and trade work in Litlington
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price bath repair

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
