Bath Repair for Boldmere homes
Fixed-price bath repair in Boldmere and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
How we handle bath repair in Boldmere
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and a hole punched through by something heavy, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Boldmere as everywhere else we work.

The process
When we visit, 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. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Boldmere questions
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you come to Boldmere?
We do. We send a technician to Boldmere for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Repairing versus replacing in Boldmere
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your photos

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Boldmere. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Boldmere, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
