What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Glasgoed. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Glasgoed, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Landlords, agents and businesses in Glasgoed
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Do you need bath repair in Glasgoed?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
