Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can tenants book a repair?

Is my repair covered?

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
