Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath repair in Martyr Worthy without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: 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 work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What else we do in Martyr Worthy
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Signs you need bath repair in Martyr Worthy
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips under the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Martyr Worthy: your questions answered
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Martyr Worthy?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Landlord and trade work in Martyr Worthy
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Martyr Worthy use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
