About our bath repair in Currock
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we are called out for in Currock
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Common questions in Currock
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Currock
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why Currock customers choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. 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 until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
