What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Monks Heath. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

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 reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Bath repair in Monks Heath, done in place

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and holes from dropped items, we can help, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. 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.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Common problems we fix in Monks Heath

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
