About our bath repair in Thorpe Green
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and a chip where the taps sit, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorpe Green
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Thorpe Green: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
How much does bath repair cost in Thorpe Green?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GU25 postcode.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
