Bath repair in Antony, done in place
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and rust spots around the plughole, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Antony use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Antony questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Antony is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Antony. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
