About our bath repair in Stanford Dingley
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are a chip where the taps sit and a cracked acrylic bath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Common problems we fix in Stanford Dingley
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Stanford Dingley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Stanford Dingley: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
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.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
