Questions from Southrop
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Southrop?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Southrop. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Southrop.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Southrop. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Southrop, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What else we do in Southrop
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Southrop
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
