What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Bath repair in Checkley, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Checkley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

FAQs for Checkley
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by 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.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
