What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath repair at your home in Broughton and Bretton
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We’re frequently asked to fix hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips caused by builders, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Broughton and Bretton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Broughton and Bretton questions
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Flintshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Broughton and Bretton
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
