How we handle bath repair in Offton
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and damage beneath the taps, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Offton. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How much damage there is

How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Offton?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

FAQs for Offton
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover Offton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Offton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Offton included. Travel is included in the price.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
