Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Mayland without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused by builders and a chip where the taps sit.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Mayland. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
When to call us in Mayland
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Holes from dropped items
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Questions from Mayland
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Landlord and trade work in Mayland
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mayland use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
