- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

About our bath repair in Pootings
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 normally use the bath the day after. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and a kit repair that didn’t last, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Pootings?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. 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 combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What affects the price in Pootings
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Common questions in Pootings
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you cover Pootings?
We do. Technicians travel to Pootings from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Other services in Pootings
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
