Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Inchmarlo clients choose us
- Colour-matched on site
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your AB31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Questions from Inchmarlo
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
When to call us in Inchmarlo
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
