DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, 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, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lighthazles
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Common questions in Lighthazles
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Repair or replace in Lighthazles?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lighthazles. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
