How we handle bath repair in Costock
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Costock
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Costock. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Costock. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Other services in Costock
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
