About our bath repair in Neithrop
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Neithrop and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
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 bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Your questions about bath repair in Neithrop
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How much does bath repair cost in Neithrop?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Neithrop. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
