The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Signs you need bath repair in Key's Green

- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A cracked acrylic bath

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Key's Green
Do you work in Key's Green?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Key's Green. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Key's Green use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Key's Green
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
