What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Bath repair in Mayes Green without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and a chip where the taps sit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Look after 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.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
FAQs for Mayes Green
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Do you cover the entire of Surrey?
The whole UK, including all of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

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.

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
