Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What else we do in Wanborough
Landlord and trade work in Wanborough
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wanborough use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Wanborough, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
