Bath repair at your home in Sutton End
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about a cracked acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Sutton End
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What we’re called out for in Sutton End
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Sutton End questions
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Wiltshire.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
