What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Keyworth
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
