Bath repair in Cromdale without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re frequently asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
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.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Cromdale
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cromdale. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PH26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Cromdale
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Cromdale: your questions answered
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you work in Cromdale?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cromdale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
