DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we handle bath repair in Higher Chisworth
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and rust spots around the plughole, in roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Higher Chisworth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
Most clients in Higher Chisworth get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
