We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lutton and across Lincolnshire.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lutton. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Signs you need bath repair in Lutton

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Should you replace it?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Lutton customers choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Lutton questions

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
