When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace in Knypersley?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ST8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Common problems we fix in Knypersley
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
How much does bath repair cost in Knypersley?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
