What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Middle Stoke
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Middle Stoke
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
Common reasons people in Middle Stoke contact us include:

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Middle Stoke questions
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
