Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are rust by the waste and overflow and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
