Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Taddington
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When to call us in Taddington
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- Holes from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Taddington
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
