Different materials, different repairs
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. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
About our bath repair in Birches Head
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit, in whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not 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 typically the cheaper route.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repair or replace in Birches Head?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Same prices wherever you are

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Birches Head
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Stoke-on-Trent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
