How we handle bath repair in Little Compton
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and chips along the edge of the bath.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Little Compton questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage

What affects the price in Little Compton
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Little Compton
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
