Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Signs you need bath repair in Minster Lovell
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Minster Lovell use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Minster Lovell
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Store metal items away from the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Minster Lovell
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
