Do you need bath repair in Lye Cross?
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Customers typically contact us about:
- A chipped rim or side

How we handle bath repair in Lye Cross
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Whether it’s a chip where the taps sit and rust spots around the plughole, we can generally put it right, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Lye Cross questions
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does bath repair cost in Lye Cross?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Lye Cross. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How it works
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 two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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 fails, we can still put it right.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Lye Cross
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lye Cross use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Lye Cross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
