Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Common problems we fix in West Haddon
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Chips under the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Rust spots around the plughole

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

West Haddon questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Repair or replace in West Haddon?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: 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. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Landlord and trade work in West Haddon
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Haddon as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
