When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

What your bath is made of matters

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.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from North Muskham

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
