Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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.
How we handle bath repair in Bulwick
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath repair in Bulwick
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Repairing versus replacing in Bulwick
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Bulwick
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Bulwick
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
