- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Bath repair in Landore without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are often asked to fix holes from dropped items and rust by the waste and overflow, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Landore as everywhere else we work.

What we are called out for in Landore
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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What else we do in Landore
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Landore: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Landore.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
