How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Bath repair in St Neots, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Repair or replace in St Neots?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures

St Neots: your questions answered
Do you come to St Neots?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to St Neots from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in St Neots
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
