Landlords, agents and businesses in Roxwell
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Bath repair in Roxwell without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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 next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Roxwell
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- How to look after the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
