DIY kit or professional repair?
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 normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Bath repair at your home in Peppard Hill
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. 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 work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are impact holes in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peppard Hill
If you manage property in Peppard Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about bath repair in Peppard Hill
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover Peppard Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Peppard Hill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- 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
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common problems we fix in Peppard Hill
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Impact holes in acrylic

- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended

- When it can be used again
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
