What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

How we handle bath repair in Chowdene
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scratches and burns and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Questions from Chowdene
Do I need to be at home?
Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How much does bath repair cost in Chowdene?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Do you protect the room?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and clean up before we leave.
What guarantee do I get?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When to call us in Chowdene
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns

How the visit works
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 a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Chowdene
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
