Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
About our bath repair in Monken Hadley
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the day after. If you’re dealing with holes from dropped items and chips along the edge of the bath, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic

What affects the price in Monken Hadley
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Monken Hadley. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
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.
