About our bath repair in North End
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips on the rim or sides, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about bath repair in North End
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in North End?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to North End. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
