Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say 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.
How we handle bath repair in Pant
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pant use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Pant
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Pant. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need bath repair in Pant
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage beneath the taps
- A chipped rim or side

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
