How we handle bath repair in Drub
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and a chip where the taps sit.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Drub questions
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
