Bath Repair in Yettington
We travel to Yettington for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
How we handle bath repair in Yettington
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What else we do in Yettington
Landlord and trade work in Yettington
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Common problems we fix in Yettington
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust spots around the plughole

Your questions about bath repair in Yettington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EX9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
For a price in Yettington, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
