What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Holes from dropped items
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
FAQs for Kirklevington
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Kirklevington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kirklevington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
