The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble 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
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Repair or replace in North End?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Your questions about bath repair in North End
Do you work in North End?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North End. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
