Bath Repair in Emmer Green
Damaged bath in Emmer Green? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Repair or replace in Emmer Green?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Same prices wherever you are
See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
