What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bittadon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Bath repair at your home in Bittadon
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include rusty patches near the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Bittadon
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
When to call us in Bittadon
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
