Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Glanvilles Wootton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area

Questions from Glanvilles Wootton
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Glanvilles Wootton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Have new chips seen to early
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting 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 quote, not a guess.
