DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we handle bath repair in Pikehall
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Typical jobs include impact holes in acrylic and a cracked acrylic bath, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Signs you need bath repair in Pikehall
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlord and trade work in Pikehall
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Your questions about bath repair in Pikehall

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
