Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are holes from dropped items and cracks in an acrylic bath.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Butt Lane. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Butt Lane, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Butt Lane use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Signs you need bath repair in Butt Lane
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
