Bath repair at your home in Hightown
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. We are often asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and damage beneath the taps, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Your questions about bath repair in Hightown
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.
What affects the price in Hightown
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Hightown. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
