What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Bowden. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Bath repair in Little Bowden without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Little Bowden: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When to call us in Little Bowden
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Holes from dropped items
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole

What else we do in Little Bowden
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Little Bowden, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
