About our bath repair in Cliffe
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the following day. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cliffe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cliffe. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cliffe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why Cliffe customers choose us
- One price list for the whole UK
- We leave the room as we found it

- Nothing taken out or refitted

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
