Common problems we fix in Little Ribston
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips on the rim or sides

Common questions in Little Ribston
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

- How much damage there is

Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Little Ribston get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. 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.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
