Bath repair at your home in Mislingford
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with a chipped rim or side and chips caused by builders, we can generally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Mislingford
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
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.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Mislingford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Mislingford
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work in Mislingford?
We do. Technicians travel to Mislingford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Mislingford
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
