How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- 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
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Morice Town
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Morice Town. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Morice Town questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
