Bath repair at your home in Clayhithe
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Questions from Clayhithe
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Clayhithe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
