Bath repair in Maxton, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s a chip where the taps sit and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Maxton
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Maxton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When to call us in Maxton
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 pictures, as it can add time.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Maxton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. 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. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
