Bath repair in Overstone, done in place
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 are frequently asked to fix holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath repair in Overstone
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to Overstone?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Overstone for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
For a price in Overstone, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Signs you need bath repair in Overstone
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
