How we handle bath repair in Green Lane
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with a chipped rim or side and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

FAQs for Green Lane
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Green Lane?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Landlord and trade work in Green Lane
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Green Lane use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What else we do in Green Lane
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
