Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

About our bath repair in Farden
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Signs you need bath repair in Farden
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
