Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Bath repair in Middle Barton without replacing anything
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips caused by builders, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Middle Barton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Middle Barton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Middle Barton
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
