What affects the price in Stansted Mountfitchet
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Stansted Mountfitchet
How much does bath repair cost in Stansted Mountfitchet?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
