Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bath repair at your home in Crofton
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and rusty patches near the plughole.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Crofton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t 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.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
