Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath repair in Edgehead without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We are often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and holes from dropped items, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.
