What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Common questions in Little Hungerford
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Little Hungerford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Little Hungerford and the rest of West Berkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Repair or replace in Little Hungerford?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
