Little Green questions
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you cover Little Green?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Little Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Little Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Do you need bath repair in Little Green?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Common reasons people in Little Green contact us include:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
