Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

About our bath repair in Longville in the Dale
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage from a refit and a chipped rim or side.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TF13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Common questions in Longville in the Dale
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Longville in the Dale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
