DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Questions from East Whitburn
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for East Whitburn. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Whitburn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairing versus replacing in East Whitburn
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
