How we handle bath repair in Greenhill
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a chip where the taps sit.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Greenhill and across Sheffield.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Questions from Greenhill
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need bath repair in Greenhill?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
Repairs by material
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 what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for 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 you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Greenhill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
