Bath repair in College Park without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about impact holes in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath repair in College Park
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What we are called out for in College Park
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for College Park. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repairing versus replacing in College Park
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in College Park use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
