Bath repair in Vicarscross without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Vicarscross and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Questions from Vicarscross
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What affects the price in Vicarscross
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Vicarscross. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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.
Common problems we fix in Vicarscross
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A chipped rim or side
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Vicarscross
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.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
