Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kettlestone. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Kettlestone, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 pictures.
Questions from Kettlestone
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work in Kettlestone?
We do. Technicians travel to Kettlestone from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
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 it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
