Bath repair in Redhill without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. 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 pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Do you need bath repair in Redhill?
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Common reasons people in Redhill contact us are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Redhill questions
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Bournemouth. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do you work in Redhill?
We do. We send a technician to Redhill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
