Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
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.
Bath repair at your home in Margaret Roding
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We are frequently asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and chips caused by builders, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Margaret Roding: your questions answered
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do you come to Margaret Roding?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Margaret Roding. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Margaret Roding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What we are called out for in Margaret Roding

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
