Bath repair at your home in Shepperdine
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repairing versus replacing in Shepperdine
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Landlord and trade work in Shepperdine
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. The room is left tidy.
- 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
FAQs for Shepperdine
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
