Bath repair in Lower Green, done in place

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and rust by the waste and overflow.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Lower Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Lower Green

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How much does bath repair cost in Lower Green?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your GU33 postcode.

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.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lower Green. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
