How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
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 quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
About our bath repair in Goitre Coed
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or sides and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.

Advice

What else we do in Goitre Coed
Landlord and trade work in Goitre Coed
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Goitre Coed
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused by builders
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Your questions about bath repair in Goitre Coed
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
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.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
