How we handle bath repair in Mayfield
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and chips under the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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 a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

When to call us in Mayfield
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips caused by builders
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
