Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thatcham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle bath repair in Thatcham
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with cracks in an acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Thatcham
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is

How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it

- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RG19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Thatcham
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse it down after each bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Questions from Thatcham
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How much does bath repair cost in Thatcham?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG19 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What we are called out for in Thatcham
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Snagging damage from a refit
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
