Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kingston Gorse. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
