Bath repair in Salterton, done in place
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. Typical jobs include rust by the waste and overflow and chips along the edge of the bath, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Salterton
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Work done at your home or business
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted

When to call us in Salterton
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chips under the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Holes from dropped items
- Rusty patches near the plughole
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
