Bath repair in Stroud without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and a chip where the taps sit, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Common problems we fix in Stroud
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Stroud: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Stroud?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Stroud?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Stroud from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Stroud?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
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 will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. 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.
