Bath repair in Stow Maries, 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 and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What else we do in Stow Maries
What affects the price in Stow Maries
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Signs you need bath repair in Stow Maries
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips caused by builders

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stow Maries
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
