What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage

Bath repair in Southend, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the following day. We are frequently asked to fix hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath repair in Southend?
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Landlord and trade work in Southend
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. 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 jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Where we work around Southend
Southend is about 26 miles east of Ballycastle, in Argyll and Bute. Book a date that suits you, and we will give you an arrival time in advance, so there is no waiting around. Our technicians cover 118 places in Argyll and Bute. We work right across the region, from Southend to Glasgow (about 65 miles away).
Jobs in PA28 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We regularly work on streets such as Teapot Lane, Dunaverty Court and St Columba's Way. Neighbouring places we cover include Drumlemble (7 miles north), Kilkerran (7 miles north), Campbeltown (8 miles north), Askomill (8 miles north) and West Darlochan (10 miles north). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Near you in Southend
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to St Columba's United Presbyterian Church and the streets around them. Other landmarks nearby include Dunaverty Castle (0.6 miles south).
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What else we do in Southend
Southend questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Southend.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
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 access behind the panel is important.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Southend is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Southend. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
