Bath repair across Herefordshire: what to expect
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. Most baths can be used again the following day. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about holes from dropped items and cracks in an acrylic bath.
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Pricing in Herefordshire
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why choose Surface Doctor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
Getting a price

What we’re called out for in Herefordshire
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Common reasons people in Herefordshire contact us are:
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Herefordshire
For anyone letting property in or around Herefordshire, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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.
Common questions in Herefordshire
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
