Bath repair at your home in AL5
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and chips caused by builders.
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for AL5. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in AL5
For anyone letting property in or around AL5, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
What we’re called out for in AL5
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chip where the taps sit
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in AL5, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
FAQs for AL5
How do I get a price for bath repair in AL5?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a repair better than a new one?
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.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
