Bath repair at your home in Milden
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We are often asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and snagging damage from a refit, in roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Repairing versus replacing in Milden
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Milden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Milden. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Milden get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we are called out for in Milden
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips on the rim or sides
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
