Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
How we handle bath repair in Gorcott Hill
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or sides and snagging damage from a refit, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Gorcott Hill
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repair or replace in Gorcott Hill?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your B98 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
