DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Curry Rivel: your questions answered

When can I have a bath again?

Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Curry Rivel get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
