Bath repair at your home in Reydon
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are deep scratches in acrylic and a cracked acrylic bath.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath repair in Reydon
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Repairing versus replacing in Reydon
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Reydon: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Reydon
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Reydon as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
