Bath Repair in Little Ditton
We travel to Little Ditton for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
How we handle bath repair in Little Ditton
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and rusty patches near the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Ditton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we’re called out for in Little Ditton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy

What else we do in Little Ditton
Common questions in Little Ditton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 usually the cheaper route.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
