Bath repair in Stoke Fleming, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke Fleming
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stoke Fleming. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Stoke Fleming get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Stoke Fleming: your questions answered
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Stoke Fleming is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
