Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lyatts. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Lyatts
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Your questions about bath repair in Lyatts
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
