DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Bath repair in Surrey Quays, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Surrey Quays. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the entire UK
Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Surrey Quays. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What we are called out for in Surrey Quays
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.
Common reasons people in Surrey Quays contact us are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
