Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath repair in Pye Hill, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We are often asked to fix chips under the taps and chips caused by builders, in pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Your questions about bath repair in Pye Hill
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlord and trade work in Pye Hill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pye Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
When to call us in Pye Hill
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
