How we handle bath repair in Pin Green
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pin Green. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Pin Green and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Landlord and trade work in Pin Green
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about bath repair in Pin Green
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
