- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before you book anyone

Loddington questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NN14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Loddington
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour mixed on the day to match
Read our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
