Bath repair at your home in Nether Street
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Repair or replace in Nether Street?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When to call us in Nether Street
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Roll-top & freestanding

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Nether Street. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about bath repair in Nether Street
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
