Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Bath repair in Long Load, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Load
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Common problems we fix in Long Load
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
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 quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
