Bath repair in Admaston, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We’re often asked to fix chips under the taps and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Admaston questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Admaston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Admaston
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.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
- How to care for the finish
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
