FAQs for Marksbury
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
How much does bath repair cost in Marksbury?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
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.
About our bath repair in Marksbury
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about holes from dropped items and chips on the rim or sides.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Marksbury
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

- Damage beneath the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
