Repairing versus replacing in Nempnett Thrubwell
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything

Bath repair in Nempnett Thrubwell, done in place
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We’re frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and chips along the edge of the bath, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
When to call us in Nempnett Thrubwell

- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
