Bath repair at your home in Southmarsh
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 and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common questions in Southmarsh
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What affects the price in Southmarsh
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Should you replace it?
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’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match

- Same prices wherever you are

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
