Bath Repair for Methlick homes
Our technicians come to Methlick for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
What affects the price in Methlick
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Bath repair in Methlick, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about a chip where the taps sit and a chipped rim or side.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs you need bath repair in Methlick
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
