What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
We price from photos 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 you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Do you need bath repair in Locksbrook?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Locksbrook customers choose us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour-matched on site

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What else we do in Locksbrook
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
