Bentilee questions
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Bentilee
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bentilee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not 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. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Landlord and trade work in Bentilee
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath repair in Bentilee?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bentilee. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
For a price in Bentilee, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
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.
