Bath chip & crack repair in Milton, Cambridgeshire
Bath repair across Milton and nearby, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Bath repair at your home in Milton
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and snagging damage from a refit, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
