How we handle bath repair in Sawbridgeworth
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and a cracked acrylic bath, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Sawbridgeworth, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Sawbridgeworth
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Other services in Sawbridgeworth
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why Sawbridgeworth customers choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in Sawbridgeworth
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
