Bath repair in Stoughton without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the next day. We are often asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and chips under the taps, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Stoughton: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repairing versus replacing in Stoughton
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stoughton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
