Bath repair in Little Fencote without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s a hole punched through by something heavy and deep scratches in acrylic, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When to call us in Little Fencote
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Questions from Little Fencote
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Repair or replace: which is better?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Typically it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Little Fencote. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
