Bath repair in Bay Horse without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips under the taps and a chipped rim or side.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Do you need bath repair in Bay Horse?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath

Questions from Bay Horse
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
