Bath repair in Timber Bush without replacing anything
You can usually use the bath the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- 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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need bath repair in Timber Bush?
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- 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. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
