Bath repair in Derry Hill without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

FAQs for Derry Hill
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Derry Hill included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Are there extra charges for Derry Hill?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What affects the price in Derry Hill
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Derry Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need bath repair in Derry Hill
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
