Bath repair in Holy Island, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Holy Island
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
