About our bath repair in Storrs
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and deep scratches in acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Signs you need bath repair in Storrs
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Questions from Storrs
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Storrs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
