Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips under the taps and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Burley Woodhead: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
How much does bath repair cost in Burley Woodhead?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What else we do in Burley Woodhead
Can I fix it myself?
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 and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Burley Woodhead
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
What we are called out for in Burley Woodhead
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
