What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunstall. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, 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.

Dunstall: your questions answered
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Common problems we fix in Dunstall
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
