About our bath repair in Charney Bassett
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and holes from dropped items.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Charney Bassett
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Signs you need bath repair in Charney Bassett
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Charney Bassett. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
