Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Common problems we fix in Musbury

Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
