Bath repair in Long Bennington without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are rusty patches near the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- 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 build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Long Bennington: your questions answered
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you cover Long Bennington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Long Bennington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
When to call us in Long Bennington
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.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
