Landlord and trade work in Middleton Cheney
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
FAQs for Middleton Cheney
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Do you cover Middleton Cheney?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Middleton Cheney and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Middleton Cheney. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Repairing versus replacing in Middleton Cheney
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
