Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and chips on the rim or sides, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Bartley questions
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Do you cover Bartley?
We do. We send a technician to Bartley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
We do not add 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.

- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
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.
