Your questions about bath repair in Worlington
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Are there extra charges for Worlington?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Worlington
Repairing versus replacing in Worlington
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Work done at your home or business
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- A year’s guarantee on all work
Read our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Worlington. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
