Questions from Magham Down
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Magham Down is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Magham Down?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BN27 postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Bath repair at your home in Magham Down
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Magham Down
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
