Crockerhill questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are there extra charges for Crockerhill?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
If you’re in Crockerhill and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Signs you need bath repair in Crockerhill
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Crockerhill. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
