Bath repair in Little Badminton, done in place
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 repaired in place, usually in a single visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about rusty patches near the plughole and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Signs you need bath repair in Little Badminton
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Little Badminton questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
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.
What affects the price in Little Badminton
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The process

- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
