Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. 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.
Bath repair in Lyng Easthaugh, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and rust spots around the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic

FAQs for Lyng Easthaugh
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
For landlords and businesses
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 also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repairing versus replacing in Lyng Easthaugh
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath repair in Lyng Easthaugh?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Look out for these signs:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
