About our bath repair in Slapton
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps, we can usually put it right.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

What else we do in Slapton
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 photos.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Signs you need bath repair in Slapton
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. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust by the waste and overflow

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Slapton
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
FAQs for Slapton
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
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.
