Bath repair at your home in Marston
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a kit repair that didn’t last and impact holes in acrylic.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
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 is the part we put right.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Repair or replace in Marston?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on

Common questions in Marston
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Marston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Marston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
