Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Bath repair at your home in Mundford
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What we’re called out for in Mundford
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:

- Chips caused by builders
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Common questions in Mundford
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
What affects the price in Mundford
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mundford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP26 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Mundford
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
