Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Shirebrook. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
