Repairing versus replacing in Nappa Scar
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

About our bath repair in Nappa Scar
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. You can typically use the bath the following day. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Nappa Scar
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Nappa Scar, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Nappa Scar: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Nappa Scar?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Nappa Scar from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
