Bath repair in Little Ponton without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you’re dealing with a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Ponton. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Little Ponton
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Your questions about bath repair in Little Ponton
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Common problems we fix in Little Ponton
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
