- Snagging damage from a refit

What else we do in Arclid
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Questions from Arclid
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Repairing versus replacing in Arclid
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- 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.
What we work on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arclid
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get 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 we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
