For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Bath repair in Slawston, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- 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.
- 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 next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
