Bath Repair in Pentridge
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Pentridge, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Bath repair in Pentridge without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. If you are dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Pentridge?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
What we’re called out for in Pentridge
