What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Common problems we fix in Hay Green
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips caused by builders
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps

Other services in Hay Green
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Hay Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Repair or replace in Hay Green?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, 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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
