What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Utley?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: 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. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Take a look at our full price list and bath cost comparison.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Utley: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
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, and we will tell you what to expect.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Utley included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Signs you need bath repair in Utley
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
