How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Common questions in Cross Green

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Are there extra charges for Cross Green?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cross Green use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
