Bath repair at your home in Sherford
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sherford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace in Sherford?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Sherford
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sherford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Sherford questions
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
We cover the entire UK, including Sherford and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Sherford?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
