Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in Over without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused by builders and a chip where the taps sit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we are called out for in Over
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
If you’re in Over and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Over questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic

Repair or replace in Over?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
