Bath repair in Sulhamstead, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
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.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Sulhamstead: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlord and trade work in Sulhamstead
If you manage property in Sulhamstead, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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.
