Bath repair in Standford without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips on the rim or sides.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about bath repair in Standford
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When to call us in Standford
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to care for the finish
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What else we do in Standford
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- Fixed prices from your photos
See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
