About our bath repair in Trowell
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips on the rim or sides, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What affects the price in Trowell
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Trowell. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Trowell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Trowell, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Trowell
How do I get a price for bath repair in Trowell?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you come to Trowell?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Trowell and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Trowell. Prices do not change with location.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
