How we handle bath repair in Walcot
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Walcot
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Walcot, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
