Bath repair at your home in Market Drayton
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Market Drayton: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Do you cover Market Drayton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Market Drayton and the rest of Shropshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Repair or replace in Market Drayton?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you need bath repair in Market Drayton?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t 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 pictures.
