Bath repair at your home in Hill Top
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and impact holes in acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- 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
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath repair in Hill Top
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Repair or replace in Hill Top?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
