We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Staverton
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Repair or replace in Staverton?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Staverton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
