Bath repair in Lerryn, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We’re frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and rusty patches near the plughole, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lerryn use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Lerryn get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Lerryn questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
