Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Fortune Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Signs you need bath repair in Fortune Green
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic

Your questions about bath repair in Fortune Green
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How much does bath repair cost in Fortune Green?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
