Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and impact holes in acrylic, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cathedral Quarter. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.
Common questions in Cathedral Quarter
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover Cathedral Quarter?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Cathedral Quarter. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Landlord and trade work in Cathedral Quarter
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need bath repair in Cathedral Quarter?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Common reasons people in Cathedral Quarter contact us are:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
