What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Edenhall

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Have new chips seen to early

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

Should you replace it?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Edenhall customers choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Edenhall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

What we’re called out for in Edenhall

Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
