- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How we handle bath repair in Vigo Village
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Vigo Village
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you work in Vigo Village?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Vigo Village from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Vigo Village, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Do you need bath repair in Vigo Village?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips under the taps

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. 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.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Landlord and trade work in Vigo Village
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
