There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and holes from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.

Do you need bath repair in Battram?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE67 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Battram

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
