Bath repair at your home in Farway
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about chips under the taps and holes from dropped items.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Farway. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Landlords, agents and businesses in Farway
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Do you need bath repair in Farway?
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Common reasons people in Farway contact us include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Farway: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
