Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
About our bath repair in Lower Swanwick
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and rust spots around the plughole, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour-matched on site
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Lower Swanwick
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you need bath repair in Lower Swanwick?
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
