Bath repair in Blackborough End without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Blackborough End
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Blackborough End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Blackborough End
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
