Bath repair in Sulgrave, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the day after. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Sulgrave questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Landlord and trade work in Sulgrave
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Sulgrave, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What affects the price in Sulgrave
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Sulgrave, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we’re called out for in Sulgrave
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
