Bath Repair for Falstone homes
We travel to Falstone for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.
How we handle bath repair in Falstone
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Falstone and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we’re called out for in Falstone
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before booking anyone

- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Falstone: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Falstone. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
