What affects the price in Mud Row
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
About our bath repair in Mud Row
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust by the waste and overflow, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Mud Row
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Signs you need bath repair in Mud Row
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before booking

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
