What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Bath repair in Boothsdale without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Boothsdale as everywhere else we work.

What else we do in Boothsdale
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about bath repair in Boothsdale
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?
Everywhere in the UK, Boothsdale included. Travel is included in the price.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Do you need bath repair in Boothsdale?
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Damage beneath the taps
Comparing quotes
- When it can be used again
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- 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 build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
