The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Ermine West
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Do you work in Ermine West?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ermine West. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
If you are in Ermine West and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
