Bath repair in Sandside without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Do you need bath repair in Sandside?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Look out for any of the following:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sandside. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sandside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Sandside, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Sandside
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work in Sandside?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Sandside. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

We work UK-wide, and that includes Sandside. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 generally cheaper.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
