Your questions about bath repair in West Ilsley
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
About our bath repair in West Ilsley
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

- A cracked acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
