About our bath repair in Anchor Corner

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and snagging damage from a refit.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Questions from Anchor Corner

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Anchor Corner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Anchor Corner customers choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Do you need bath repair in Anchor Corner?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

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, avoiding abrasives.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
