What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Horton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
About our bath repair in Horton
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Horton
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Horton
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

How it works
On the day, 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.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Horton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the whole UK
- We leave the room as we found it
- Fixed prices from your photos

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
When to call us in Horton
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- A chipped rim or side

Questions from Horton
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Horton.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
