Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath repair at your home in Paddock
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Paddock and across Kirklees.

- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Paddock, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
