Bath repair at your home in Betchworth
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, with the colour mixed on site. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and impact holes in acrylic, we can generally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Betchworth
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RH3 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you need bath repair in Betchworth?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One price list for the whole UK
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
