Repair or replace in Ladycross?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Bath repair at your home in Ladycross
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about deep scratches in acrylic and holes from dropped items.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. 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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Ladycross questions
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Ladycross?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
