How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Landlord and trade work in Ludford
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we’re called out for in Ludford
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
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.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
