Advice
Bath repair at your home in Saltmarshe
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Common call-outs are for rusty patches near the plughole and a chipped rim or side, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

What we’re called out for in Saltmarshe

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Saltmarshe
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Saltmarshe.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
