How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 early repairs matter.
Repairing versus replacing in Brunthwaite
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

Your questions about bath repair in Brunthwaite
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Brunthwaite?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Brunthwaite. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
