Bath repair across EX14: what to expect

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and a chip where the taps sit, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

What you will pay

Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for EX14. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for EX14. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Common problems we fix in EX14

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Look out for these signs:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Holes from dropped items

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

EX14 questions

How do I get a price for bath repair in EX14?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
