DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How we handle bath repair in Stanton
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust spots around the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we are called out for in Stanton
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole

Common questions in Stanton
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Stanton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Stanton
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stanton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
