- Repairs from £95

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Bath repair in Williamscot, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and scratches in the surface and rusty patches near the plughole.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Signs you need bath repair in Williamscot
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- Holes from dropped items
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips under the taps

Repairing versus replacing in Williamscot
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
FAQs for Williamscot
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you come to Williamscot?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Williamscot and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Williamscot
If you manage property in Williamscot, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
