Bath repair in Arrunden without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and cracks in an acrylic bath.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

When to call us in Arrunden
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What affects the price in Arrunden
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Arrunden. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How it works
We turn 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 two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
