What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Your questions about bath repair in Penkhull
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Penkhull included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
