What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work

- Colour-matched on site

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic

When to call us in Calais Street
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped rim or side
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Questions from Calais Street
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Calais Street. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
