Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Little Berkhamsted, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
Repair or replace in Little Berkhamsted?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Do you need bath repair in Little Berkhamsted?
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
