Bath repair in Saddington, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage from a refit and a chip where the taps sit.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Saddington
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Saddington: your questions answered
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Are there extra charges for Saddington?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
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.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What affects the price in Saddington
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why Saddington customers choose us

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
