Bath repair in Littlebury without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Littlebury
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why Littlebury clients choose us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Everything repaired in place
- One visit for most repairs

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through

Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What affects the price in Littlebury
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: 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.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Littlebury questions
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What we’re called out for in Littlebury
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Common reasons people in Littlebury contact us are:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littlebury as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
