Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Marche. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Marche
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marche as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Marche. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Marche, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Questions from Marche
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Marche?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you work in Marche?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Marche from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we cannot put right
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
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

When to call us in Marche
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Holes from dropped items

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
