About our bath repair in Milton Bridge
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
More services for Milton Bridge
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Milton Bridge
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

FAQs for Milton Bridge
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
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 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 need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel

When to call us in Milton Bridge
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
