Bath repair in Kirkhouse Green, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage beneath the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in Kirkhouse Green
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse it down after each bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.

Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. 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.
