About bath repair in GL18
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What it costs in GL18
Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Around Newent
We visit homes around United Reformed Church, Glebe Infants' School and George Hotel and the streets around them. Nearby you’ll also find Boulsdon Manor (1.1 miles south-west) and Newent Market House Museum (under half a mile north-east). Open spaces near Newent include May Hill.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
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 without abrasive products.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
How the damage happens
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Common reasons people in GL18 contact us include:
- Chips under the taps
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
FAQs for GL18
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you cover GL18?
We do. We send a technician to GL18 for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
