- Repairs from £95

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Eythorne, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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 your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
