What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
What affects the price in Eastmoor
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Common problems we fix in Eastmoor
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps

- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
