Bath Repair for Blockley homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Blockley, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our bath repair in Blockley
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and holes from dropped items, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Blockley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material

Blockley: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Common problems we fix in Blockley
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
