What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Bath repair in High Clarence, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including High Clarence. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in High Clarence, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Clarence use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

High Clarence: your questions answered
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
