Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in Stoford, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are often asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and rust spots around the plughole, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Stoford
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Stoford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When to call us in Stoford
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole

What else we do in Stoford
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

FAQs for Stoford
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you cover the entire of Wiltshire?
All of Wiltshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
